Evidence: The California Code and the Federal Rules, A Problem Approach (American Casebook Series)

Evidence: The California Code and the Federal Rules, A Problem Approach provides a systematic comparison of the California Evidence Code’s and Federal Rules’ approaches to admissibility. Using transcripts of witness examinations, the authors help students visualize the process of presenting and objecting to evidence and understand the rules in practice as well as in theory. This title:

• Combines the problem and witness examination approach with text, not cases, that sets out the law of evidence in a clear and concise manner
• Discusses major cases as well as the policies and concepts underlying the rules, not just the rules themselves
• Includes, at the end of each chapter, the text of the Code sections and Rules discussed in that chapter
