Levenson and Justice Brian M. Hoffstadt supports students with a clear, consistent, and engaging approach to understanding and practicing evidence law, while offering instructors a comprehensive and stimulating teaching tool. This book provides a suitable foundation for students to learn and apply federal and state evidence laws, both in litigation and transactional practices. Students and instructors have responded positively to the book’s unique step-by-step approach of (1) providing the rule; (2) explaining the basis for the rule; (3) demonstrating how it is applied; (4) discussing any complications in its application; and (5) providing short, carefully edited cases regarding the rule. Cases in the book serve to affirm the rule, not provide subtle or exceptional applications of it. The second edition includes even more support and value for students with over 700 realistic practice exercises presented in Aspen Courses, an interactive digital environment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eNew to the Second Edition:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncluded in the casebook are amended and\/or \u003cb\u003enew Federal Rules of Evidence\u003c\/b\u003e.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003ePoints to Ponder\u003c\/b\u003e prompts conclude every chapter, engaging students in\u003cb\u003e critical thinking\u003c\/b\u003e about the application of the evidence rules in our evolving social context.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCoverage and examples of issues arising in the context of \u003cb\u003eAI-generated evidence and electronic record keeping\u003c\/b\u003e.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExpanded discussion of the \u003cb\u003eimpact of due process rights under the 14th Amendment\u003c\/b\u003e.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncluded with the casebook, students and instructors gain access to Levenson and Hoffstadt's \u003ci\u003ePracticing Evidence Law: Interactive Exercises\u003c\/i\u003e, an online Aspen Course with \u003cb\u003eover seven hundred interactive practice exercises\u003c\/b\u003e.
