Evidence

Qualification Testimony

The question "on ho wmany previous occasions have you qualified as an expert" is objectionable hearsay, or so says Edward J. Imwinkelried in an article in the October 31, 2005 issue of The National Law Journal.  I agree.

A view of 404b

We (judges and lawyers alike) frequently deal with the "Objection, 401, 404b, 403" litany and we know intellectually what all that means, but do we have a structure within which to actually "run the traps" on the filter that those sections of the Evidence Code provide?

Archived web pages are not hearsay

A 'web page archive' is a page that is no longer an active page on the web but which has been archived by a search engine. Google does this and there is a site whose sole function is to archive web pages.
