This is the fourth edition of New York Courtroom Evidence. It has been used by judges and lawyers for over twenty-two years as a ready source of reference during trials and preparation. This fourth edition lays out time-honored principles of evidence, while honing in on those principles as they have been fleshed out over the twenty years since the first publication of the book. New York Courtroom Evidence recognizes the reasoning underlying the various rules, so if the reason for the rule fades, the new rule grows from well known principles.
