A collaboration by members of Maine's bench and bar, this comprehensive handbook for trying cases in Maine contains legal principles, foundational requirements, and over 100 sample courtroom examinations illustrating the practical implementation of the evidentiary approaches explored in the text. Starting with an introduction to the Maine Rules of Evidence, the book also covers presumptions, evidentiary exclusions and limitations, witness competence, corroboration and support, a spectrum of hearsay issues, identification, reputation, the impeachment and rehabilitation of witnesses, expert and lay witness testimony, as well as documentary and demonstrative evidence. Over 250 supporting cases are cited, along with hundreds of references to the rules and other primary law sources.
