One of my co-workers found interesting trial advocacy tidbits about other parts of the world.

Mike Nizza, a New York Times columnist, wrote an article titled: "Game Over: Sudoku Spoils a Trial in Australia."


Michel-Adrien Sheppard,reference librarian from Ottawa, blogged about "Supreme Court Advocacy Institute Helps Lawyers Prepare For Their Big Day In Court."

Thanks, Noa.

Rule 804 (b) (6) The Illegitimate Child of the Failed Liaison Between the Hearsay Rule and Confrontation Clause written by Professors Anthony Bocchino and David Sonenshein.
