What We Don't Teach in Trial Advocacy: A Proposed Course in Trial Law.

Tanford, J. Alexander

Journal of Legal Education, v41 n2 p251-61 Jun 1991

A course devoted to trial law and procedure would be useful in the law school curriculum. It is a meaningful contribution to law students' core education, and there are educational costs in not teaching it. Simply adding a trial law component to existing advocacy courses would not serve the purpose. (MSE)
