About The Missouri Evidence Handbook With Common
This handbook on Missouri evidence contains:1) the “Missouri Evidence Guide” produced by the Missouri Bar CLE (MoBarCLE) in a rule format similar to the Federal Rules of Evidence,2) a list of Missouri evidence statutes from Missouri Revisor of Statutes (Chapters 490-493), and3) a lengthy appendix with a 16-page section on making and responding to common objections (including a discussion of the 15 most common trial objections and a list of 60 common trial objections) and over 60 pages on evidentiary foundations and impeachment - including 25 examples of foundations for introducing physical, electronic, hearsay, and social media evidence, a discussion on differing standards for authenticating digital evidence, and sample impeachment transcripts.The Missouri Evidence Handbook with a Focus on Common Objections & Evidentiary Foundations (6" x 9") was designed to be brought to court and be at your side in the office.Missouri is one of only three states (including Massachusetts and New York) as well as the District of Columbia, that does not have statutory or court rules of evidence. Those jurisdictions rely on the case law decisions and statutes for their evidence law, but no rules. Both New York and Massachusetts have recently published “Guides” to evidence in a rule format, but those rules are really summaries of the common law and statutes in those states.The author is a former Detroit criminal trial lawyer, a full-time law professor for almost 50 years, and a professor at the William S. Richardson School of Law at the University of Hawaii for almost 45 years. His students at Hawaii and Wayne State have represented real clients in real cases every year he has been teaching. He has taught evidence since 1981 and has been the Director, and now Co-Director, of the Law School's Clinical Program since 1978. He has been a member of the Hawaii Supreme Court's Standing Committee on the Rules of Evidence since 1993. For 49 years, he has taught a criminal prosecution and defense clinics in which his students try traffic and minor criminal cases under the state student practice rule.
