Why should I take this course?
Judges should have a thorough knowledge and understanding of the rules of evidence that apply in their jurisdiction and be able to apply those rules competently and efficiently. Judges who are well-versed in the applicable rules and who have developed a framework for dealing with evidentiary matters, both fairly and efficiently, can better manage their dockets, while contributing to an overall positive image of the judicial system as an effective dispute resolution mechanism. Participants in this course will not only discuss, review, and reflect upon the rules of evidence, but will also apply them as they would in a courtroom setting.Â
Who should attend?
This course is appropriate for all judges who preside over trials and attorneys.
Who are the members of the faculty?
The faculty for this course are judges and former judges who have a wide and diverse background and experience presiding over civil and criminal cases and law professors who specialize in teaching evidence.
How is this course taught?
The faculty use a number of adult education techniques including lecture, discussion, and group study, but primarily this course is taught using a problem-solving method during which judges are called upon to make rulings and discuss their rationale for their rulings.Â
