Course Description:
This course will meet May 28 - June 24 on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesdays from 9:00 - 11:55 am. The final exam will be administered at 9:00 am on Thursday, June 27.

The objective of this course in Evidence is to enhance your skill at understanding and applying various of the Federal Rules of Evidence. To best accomplish that purpose, each student will be expected to be prepared to explain the holdings of the assigned cases and to discuss the method of answering each of the problems assigned for each and every class. Because we will have less than a dozen students registered for the course, each student can be expected to be called upon at least once during every class. Class attendance and participation is an essential component of this course and so attendance and participation are non-waivable course requirements. I wanted you to know this before the summer semester begins so that everyone understands the nature of the course. I have taught bar review courses in Evidence for over a decade and I know that this is the best way to prepare you for success. I look forward to seeing you in class.

Significant time will also be spent writing motions, and students will be exposed to additional documents types as well. Students will be required to rewrite all assignments and will complete a total of approximately thirty assignments during the course. Students will receive extensive individualized feedback on each assignment, and all projects, including both original assignments and rewrites, will be graded. Students are expected to spend an average of eight to ten hours per day on class assignments.
