When a witness tries to change their prior testimony on the stand, an effective impeachment will show the jury the witness is not credible. Conducting a clean impeachment with confidence is a key to ensuring the jury reaches the right conclusion.
This program will develop attendees' understanding of impeachment evidence, how to lay a foundation to impeach prior testimony, how to use documents to impeach a witness and address related evidentiary issues.
Attendees will learn and practice the step-by-step process for effectively impeaching a witness who provides inconsistent testimony or invents new facts on the stand. Attendees will practice the steps for impeaching a witness and receive feedback from experienced trial attorneys.
Please note:
During the presentation, a letter will randomly appear. This will happen 3 times. Please write down each letter as, together, they will serve as your "CLE Password".
CLE programs which take place outside of Alaska are not required to be accredited by the Alaska Bar Association. Alaska Bar members may claim credit for attendance at CLE programs offered in or from other jurisdictions if the program has been accredited by another MCLE jurisdiction.
