Federal Rules of Evidence With Practice Problems, 2017 Supplement - Supplements

This text is an essential complement to Arthur Best's casebook, Evidence: Practice, Problems, and Rules, Second Edition. The practice problems provide students with an opportunity to apply their knowledge of Evidence rules and doctrines in a variety of practice contexts.

It contains:

• The restyled Federal Rules of Evidence, as Amended December 1, 2015
• Advisory Committee notes and Legislative History
• Prior version of Federal Rules of Evidence (unrestyled rules)
• Trial preparation problems that present particular evidence issues in seven different practice settings. They call for the drafting of motions or memos that lawyers would typically prepare to deal with them in advance of trial.
• Extensive in-trial problems that follow the transcript of a hypothetical trial, with evidence issues arising in a somewhat unpredictable order that reflects actual trial practice.
