Federal Rules of Evidence with Cues and Signals for Good Objections, 1st Edition

De: Deanne Siemer

Narrado por: David Marantz

Knowing the technical bases for objections is not so difficult. Law school covers that. What is much harder is recognizing a good objection very quickly when your opponent puts a question to a witness or starts using a document.

This handy guide identifies the "cues" to listen for when your opponent asks a question or the witness gives an answer. These words or phrases that are the "cues" that tell you instantly that you likely have a good objection. When you know the cues, you can object rapidly and successfully. For documents, this guide also provides the "signals" that support a useful objection. For example, many lawyers miss the objection to "lay opinion" when the writer of a document gives his own view of why something happened.

Cues and Signals gives you details on every objection that has been recognized in federal courts and sorts out the high-payoff objections from those of lower priority for both oral testimony and exhibits. Everything you need on objections is in one audiobook.

Very thorough. Will need to read several times to learn it well.

This book is packed with detailed instructions. In order to really absorb, plan on listening at least 3 times and take notes!

No Real-world Examples

this was basically someone reading the book of evidence rules. No real world examples. Very little practical use
