This is an entry level introduction to evidence.  Developed especially for the legal assistant who has had limited or no experience with trial preparation and assisting in the courtroom.  Included will be a discussion of why and what legal assistants need to know about the rules of evidence and their purpose, the nature/definition of evidence, the admission or exclusion of evidence, relevance (what it is, what it means), materiality (what it is, what it means).
