This single-volume treatise on the Federal Rules of Evidence is a self-contained discussion of all the evidentiary rules applied in federal courts. Not just a handbook, it provides a thorough & concise analysis of the application of the Federal Rules of Evidence. An appendix containing Advisory Committee Notes is included. One federal judge has written of this volume: "... a good one-volume work on evidence is indispensable for the federal trial attorney.... Weissenberger's Federal Evidence is the ideal one-volume quick-reference work for the trial lawyer or judge who needs an authoritative but succinct work for the courtroom" & Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg writes: "this impressive work should prove a valuable reference."

This one-volume, softbound treatise provides clear and concise explanations for the application and practical effect of each Rule of Evidence--a valuable resource for any Evidence student. This treatise was recently cited as "the authoritative text" on federal evidence law (United States v. Schlesinger, 372 F. Supp. 2d 711, 720 (E.D.N.Y. 2005)). This edition contains a careful examination of the most recent changes in the Federal Rules. This edition includes a detailed line-by-line summary and analysis of the newest Federal Rule of Evidence, Rule 502, which sets forth certain important new limitations on the waiver of the attorney-client privilege and work product protection. It also discusses the Supreme Court's latest decision in Kansas v. Ventris (2009), concerning the extent to which a witness may be impeached with prior inconsistent statements that were obtained in violation of witness's constitutional rights. And of course it includes an extensive discussion of four landmark Supreme Court decisions, Crawford v. Washington (2004), Davis v. Washington (2006), Whorton v. Bockting (2007), and Giles v. California (2008), which have completely rewritten the law governing the right of a criminal defendant to rely on the Confrontation Clause to obtain the exclusion of otherwise admissible hearsay.
