Advanced criminal evidence
This three and one-half day advanced criminal evidence course is designed for North Carolina superior court judges. The focus will be on North Carolina law, except where federal law governs, such as with sixth amendment confrontation rights. Topics covered will include, among other things: character and habit, hearsay, confrontation, experts, child witnesses, authentication, and case management. A strong emphasis will be on helping judges develop skills to decide evidence issues quickly and accurately and to manage cases well. Thus, a significant portion of class time will be spent on case-based problems.
Attendees
| Active Senior Resident Superior Court Judges, Resident Superior Court Judges, and Special Superior Court Judges; preference will be given to judges with at least three years experience on the superior court bench.
