Evidence Practicum

LAW 411

This course accompanies the standard 4-unit Evidence course (LAW 406). Topics covered in the standard Evidence course will be reinforced through role-playing as attorneys. The seminar will follow one hypothetical criminal case and one hypothetical civil case throughout the semester. Students will be given opportunities to write one or more motions in limine, raise and respond to objections as if they were in trial, and write at least a portion of a trial brief. Must be taken concurrently with and with the same professor as Evidence (LAW 406).
