The law of evidence is one of the most important – and, at times, challenging – areas of law. Because it is central to both the civil and criminal courtroom, a solid knowledge of its principles is essential for any lawyer whose files regularly or occasionally involve litigious matters. This important title brings together in one accessible source the law of evidence that applies in civil and criminal proceedings before Canadian courts. Topics covered include:
- Competency and compellability
- Testimonial qualifications of a witness
- Examination of witnesses, prior inconsistent statements, refreshed and recorded memory
- Civil and criminal proceedings
- Charter litigation and constitutional considerations
- Presumptions
- Exceptions to the rule against hearsay
- Necessity and reliability
- Statements to persons not in authority
- The confessions rule: statements to persons in authority
- Admissibility of statements
And much more.
