Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

Print on Demand. The main subject of this book is the evolution of the law in the United States that made it competent for certain parties to testify in both civil and criminal trials. Prior to the mid-19th century, many individuals who had an interest in a case, such as parties to the action or those who might gain or lose from the outcome, were excluded from testifying. The author traces the development of the law as it moved away from incompetency based on interest to competency and privilege. As society's views on fairness and justice changed, incompetency based on interest became seen as unduly restrictive. A party's interest in the outcome of a case was no longer seen as a reason to exclude them from providing testimony, and privilege based on relationships such as that of husband and wife, attorney and client, and doctor and patient evolved as a more appropriate way to protect certain communications and relationships. The significance of these changes and their impact on the ability of parties and interested persons to provide testimony in both civil and criminal trials continues to be felt in the present day. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.…
