Evidence: Essential Terms and Concepts (Essentials for Law Students)

By Mark Reutlinger

In his paperback, Professor Reutlinger balances the necessary amount of information with the optimum degree of accessibility to create a high quality, fast action reference. Students can use Evidence: Essential Terms and Concepts to familiarize themselves with terms before class, For quick summaries of casebook material, and for review of key concepts at exam time. in 12 self-contained chapters, Evidence: Essential Terms and Concepts includes virtually every term or concept in every area of Evidence covered by the major casebooks. For each entry, Reutlinger begins with a simple definition, gives an example of a typical application, and distinguishes any principal variations. Reutlinger recognizes the importance of the Federal Rules of Evidence but takes into account the fact that half the population lives in states that have not adopted them. He approaches the terms and concepts of Evidence from a general, traditional point of view but always indicates what federal rule would apply and how it would differ - if at all - from the traditional approach.
