Exhibits

The exhibits chapter is the trilogy’s most comprehensive treatment of the practical foundations courtroom advocates actually use, with worked examples for nearly every category of exhibit a modern lawyer encounters. It covers real, demonstrative, and illustrative aids; modern courtroom technology; the foundational steps for admissibility and chain of custody; and detailed example questions for documents, ESI, emails and texts, internet content, business records, electronic recordings, test results, digital images, and summary exhibits. It closes with sections on demonstrative design, courtroom display, and objection handling. The example-rich format makes it directly usable as the textbook for an exhibits-and-foundations workshop or a unit embedded in a broader trial advocacy course.
