SUMMARY:Advanced Evidence (JS 617)
DESCRIPTION:PREREQUISITE: A law degree or completion of one of the following courses is required to attend: Fundamentals of Evidence (or its equivalent)\, Special Court Jurisdiction\, or Special Court Jurisdiction: Advanced.\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nWhy should I take this course?Consistently rated as one of the top courses at NJC\, Advanced Evidence  is a must for judges who want to improve their evidentiary rulings.  This course gives you the opportunity to analyze rules of criminal and  civil evidence in a setting where you can debate the rules with other  judges from around the country. The expert faculty will not only lead  you through the quagmire of the Federal Rules of Evidence\, but will also  compare and contrast the common law rules of evidence. The course is  “advanced” in the sense that you have the opportunity to examine the  various rules of evidence in depth. It is helpful if you can bring your  state’s evidence rules with you\, so you can compare and contrast those  rules with the federal rules. \n\n\n\nWho should attend?This course has been specially developed for general jurisdiction  judges or special court judges who hear criminal and/or civil cases. If  you are a legally trained administrative law judge\, you certainly are  welcome; however\, some of your practical concerns may not be  specifically addressed. Appellate judges are encouraged to enroll not  only for an update on evidence\, but to hear the practicalities of  applying evidentiary rules from a trial court judge’s perspective. \n\n\n\nWho are the members of the faculty?Faculty members are judges recognized as experts in the field of evidence\, as well as law professors who understand the real-life concerns that judges face. \n\n\n\nHow is this course taught?The faculty uses a number of adult education techniques including  lecture\, audio-visual aids\, question and answer\, debate\, and class  problems. Participants will also be directly involved in solving  hypotheticals in your small group discussions. \n\n\n\nWhat should I tell my presiding judge or funding agency so that my attendance will be approved?Judges must have a good understanding of the rules of evidence to  make appropriate decisions in their courtrooms. This course gives the  participant judge the rare opportunity to contrast their state rules of  evidence with those of their colleagues from around the country. Each  participant will also be given in-class problems that they must present  to their colleagues. Ultimately\, the judge participant will come away  with a greater grasp of the rules of evidence and the reasons underlying  those rules. \n\n\n\nWhom should I contact for more information?For more information\, please contact the Registrar’s Office at (800) 255-8343 or registrar@judges.org. \n\n\n\nClass MaterialsAn electronic version of the binder will be shared a week before the class. Hard copies will not be provided. Participants are most welcome to print their binders. \n\n\n\nAttireBusiness casual: most participants wear jeans\, comfortable pants\, sneakers\, or tennis shoes
