Please read the following question which was asked by Attorney Walker to a witness on the stand, and then answer the related TRUE/FALSE question. “You told the defendant that you were relying on him for advice, didn’t you?”   TRUE/FALSE:   The question asked by Attorney Walker is an example of a leading question. 

TRUE/FALSEReal evidence may be authenticated in three ways.

TRUE/FALSEEvidence is relevant when it has any tendency in reason to make the fact that it is offered to prove or disprove either more or less probable. 

Please read the following hypothetical scenario and choose the best possible answer regarding the question asked after the scenario. Sally Pimberton was recently hired as a paralegal for the firm Apple, Core, and Peal, L.L.C.  Sally has been tasked with drafting an Answer to a Complaint filed in state Circuit Court.  She remembers from her legal classes at ESCC that she has 30 days to answer a complaint in Circuit Court.  Sally goes to the Master Calendar (as she was taught to do in her training with the firm) where all deadlines are carefully kept so that she can insert the deadline for filing her Answer.  She knows that the Complaint was served on her firm’s client on September 11th, 2017.  Sally will mark the deadline to file the Answer on what date?

TRUE/FALSE Regarding chain of custody, if it can be shown that there is any time from the events in question to the day of trial during which the location of the item (evidence) cannot be accounted for, the chain is broken. In that case, the evidence will be excluded unless another method of authentication can be used.

TRUE/FALSEEven if a witness forgets what he is supposed to be testifying about, the law allows you to attempt to supplement his memory in at least four ways.

TRUE/FALSEDocumentary evidence is another type of real evidence, however, because documents contain human language, and because of the historical development of the common law, documents present special problems not presented by other forms of real evidence, such as when they contain hearsay.
