Download or read book Closing Arguments written by Clarence Darrow and published by Ohio University Press. This book was released on 2005 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Closing Arguments: Clarence Darrow on Religion, Law, and Society collects, for the first time, Darrow's thoughts on his three main preoccupations. The effect reveals a carefully conceived philosophy, expressed with delightful pungency and clarity. The provocative content of these writings still challenges us. His thoughts on social issues, especially on the dangers of religious fundamentalism, are uncannily prescient. A dry and even misanthropic humor lightens his essays, and his reflections on himself and his philosophy reveal a quiet dignity at the core of a man better known for provoking Americans during an era of unprecedented tumult. From the wry "Is the Human Race Getting Anywhere," to the scornful "Patriotism," and his elegaic summing up, "At Seventy-Two," Darrow's writing still stimulates and pleases. Darrow, son of a village undertaker and coffinmaker, rose to become one of America's greatest attorneys—and surely its most famous. The Ohio native gained fame for being at the center of momentous trials, including his 1924 defense of Leopold and Loeb and his defense of Darwinian principles in the 1925 Scopes "Monkey Trial." Some have traced Darrow's lifelong campaign against capital punishment to his boyhood terror at seeing a Civil War soldier buried—and no client of Darrow's was ever executed, not even black men who were charged with murder for defending themselves against a white mob. A rebel who always sided intellectually and emotionally with the minority, Darrow remains a figure to contend with sixty-seven years after his death. "Inside every lawyer is the wreck of a poet," Darrow once said. Closing Arguments demonstrates that, in his case, that statement is true.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It has been many years since O. J. Simpson walked free from a downtown Los Angeles courtroom. For many, it was the demolition of the fundamental principle of right and wrong, and many debated the deficiencies of the American justice system. Since then, we have witnessed the Casey Anthony case, and others, that remind us of issues unaddressed and questions unanswered. In Fixing the Engine of Justice author David Tunno presents the symptoms of a defective jury system and offers comprehensive, intelligent, and thought-provoking solutions. Tunno, a trial consultant for more than twenty years, has studied and researched key trials and has gleaned stories from his personal experiences to show a system beset with representation issues, incompetence, bias, misconduct, and lack of support and public perception based on misconceptions. He analyzes the flaws in the jury selection process, its lack of effectiveness, and the ways in which it contributes to the delivery of justice. Often humorous and irreverent, Fixing the Engine of Justice offers a diagnosis of the problems and a list of needed repairs to the American legal system. With the prime focus on juries, Tunno also takes aim at judges, attorneys, and other issues relevant to the health of the system.

Download or read book On the Jury Trial written by Thomas M. Melsheimer and published by University of North Texas Press. This book was released on 2017-10-15 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two outstanding Texas trial lawyers—one of whom is now an equally respected district judge—have written On the Jury Trial, a “must have” reference for any trial lawyer aspiring to excellence or seeking to maintain it. Thomas M. Melsheimer and Judge Craig Smith have crafted a narrative-driven advice guide for trial lawyers to hone their craft. Chapter topics include voir dire, opening statement, preparing witnesses, cross examination, using exhibits, closing argument, jury research, and more, with excellent examples and “do’s and don’ts” provided throughout. Think of this book as the senior law partner’s memo to associates on how to really try a case. Looking for fly-on-the-wall insight into world-class trial preparation and strategy? Here it is. A behind-the-scenes tour of the inner workings of the judicial process? This book has you covered. Its combination of advice, illustration, and commentary is every bit as valuable as it is unique. Every litigator should have this book on the shelf, no matter the state in which they practice. The jury trial is a critical component of our democratic society, and its use in civil cases is unique to the United States. It is truly an example of our participatory democracy in action, and yet the jury trial is under attack from all sides, most notably from special interest groups who seek to have more cases decided by individual judges or by arbitration. These efforts have resulted in a decline of civil jury trials all over the country. A decline in the jury trial is a decline in justice. To preserve the jury trial, we must preserve the skills of trying a case effectively and efficiently. On the Jury Trial, in no small way, will add significantly to that effort.

Download or read book Practical Trial Handbook written by Mark Curry and published by . This book was released on 2021-07-04 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Practical Trial Handbook is a concise and practical treatise on the rules of evidence, trial procedures, and basic trial skills and strategies that every attorney must know in order to competently and effectively try any type of case in any jurisdiction. Referencing the Federal Rules of Evidence (FRE) and trial procedure, the handbook explains the fundamentals of a court or jury trial, from the motion in limine to the final argument and everything in between. Topics of discussion include pre-trial procedures, jury selection, witness testimony, opening statements, direct and cross-examination, witness impeachment and rehabilitation, foundational requirements for the admissibility of evidence, hearsay and other exclusionary rules, expert witnesses, trial objections, character evidence, and closing argument. Written by a retired trial court judge with 36 years of experience in the courtroom, the handbook also includes more than 150 "Trial Tips," practical real-world advice by the author on trying a case that cannot be learned in the classroom nor found in other trial treatises. They provide not only basic "how to" advice, but also give suggestions on trial tactics or strategies the author has found to be effective. These informal and wide-ranging "Trial Tips" are found throughout the handbook for nearly every stage of a trial and are what sets this handbook apart from the other trial guides. Regardless of the type of case or the jurisdiction, the same basic rules of evidence and trial procedure apply. Furthermore, in every trial an attorney must possess the requisite basic trial skills and knowledge to try the case, e.g., the ability to question witnesses, introduce evidence, or argue the merits. This handbook is designed to distill these fundamentals into one, concise, and easy to follow format. It is designed not only as a learning resource for law students and less experienced trial lawyers, but also as a refresher for the veterans. It is a handbook every attorney should have in his or her library for reference when preparing for the next trial or evidentiary hearing. This edition focuses on the Federal Rule of Evidence and basic trial procedure, making it applicable not only to Federal Court, but also to state court jurisdictions that follow the Federal Rules. There is also a companion edition, Practical Trial Handbook California, which references only the California Rules of Evidence and basic trial procedure. The Practical Trial Handbook California is also available on-line at: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B098JVZRSX?ref_=pe_3052080_397514860 Practical Trial Website For more information on both handbooks, including introductory comments by the author, chapter summaries, and sample "Trial Tips," visit the handbook website at: https://www.practicaltrialhandbook.com/
