Example wrong choices

  • 17458_harbor_net · EVIDENCE · Choice ACompel Lydia to add the claimed words, because Rule 106 removes every foundation requirement for completing statements.

    Why it's attractive

    'removes every foundation requirement' — absolute 'every' on a rule that was liberalized, not emptied

    Why it's wrong

    'removes every foundation requirement' — absolute 'every' on a rule that was liberalized, not emptied

  • 17458_harbor_net · EVIDENCE · Choice BStrike Lydia's original testimony because Peter disputes the remainder of the conversation.

    Why it's attractive

    A dispute over the unproven remainder goes to weight, not admissibility; striking the heard words answers a different call

    Why it's wrong

    A dispute over the unproven remainder goes to weight, not admissibility; striking the heard words answers a different call

  • 17458_harbor_net · EVIDENCE · Choice DCompel Lydia to add the claimed words, because any accused person is entitled to complete an accusation made against him.

    Why it's attractive

    'any accused person is entitled' — completion is never automatic by status

    Why it's wrong

    'any accused person is entitled' — completion is never automatic by status
