Course Description

Law of Evidence-II sustains a detailed engagement with two principal concepts of hearsay, and character evidence. The first part of the course deals with rules of hearsay in both criminal and civil cases concluding this engagement with a study of admissibility of hearsay at common law. In the second part of the course, the attention is shifted to the topic of character evidence distinguishing, again, between rules that apply in criminal and civil cases. This attention is extended to cover the variation between the respective rules that apply to evidence of good and evidence of bad character in criminal cases. The course concludes with a study of confessions and proof of facts without evidence.
