{ "item_title" : "Objection ! Volume 2 of 2", "item_author" : [" Dave F. Hartman "], "item_description" : "An objection not made is a right not kept.Most criminal cases are not lost at trial. They are lost in the silence between questions. A prosecutor asks a leading question and nobody objects. A police officer repeats what an absent witness told him and nobody objects. A lab analyst who never touched the evidence reads someone else's report to the jury and nobody objects. Two years later an appellate court writes the sentence that ends the case: this claim was not preserved below.OBJECTIONis built to make sure those two words get said. Across two volumes it covers every objection a criminal defendant can make, from the moment of arrest through the appeal - organized so you can find the right one while the sentence you need to object to is still hanging in the air. Set in 13-point Arial, because this book gets read under bad courthouse lighting.HOW THE TWO VOLUMES DIVIDEThe set is split by what you are physically doing, not by the order the case happens in. VOLUME ONE - IN THE ROOM (Chapters 1-14 and 45-80) is what you say out loud: how an objection is preserved, objecting when a lawyer speaks for you, jury selection and Batson, the full evidentiary catalog, and objections to the prosecutor, the judge, and the courtroom itself. VOLUME TWO - ON THE RECORD (Chapters 15-44 and 81-110) is what you put on paper: vulnerable defendants and accommodations, search and interrogation, charging and bail and discovery, jury instructions and verdict, sentencing and supervision, appeal and collateral review, and representing yourself.Chapter numbers never repeat across the set, so every cross-reference works whichever volume you are holding. All six indexes appear IN FULL in BOTH volumes, with every entry tagged V1 or V2.WHAT IS INSIDE110 chapters across 12 Parts: arrest and search, interrogation, charging, bail, discovery, jury selection, every trial evidentiary objection, prosecutorial misconduct, jury instructions, verdict, sentencing, restitution, revocation, appeal, and collateral review.SIX separate indexes so you can enter the book from wherever you are standing: by objection name, by the phrase the prosecutor just said out loud, by what is happening to you in plain language, by rule number, by case name, and by keyword.A full Part on vulnerable defendants - competency, intellectual and developmental disability, mental illness and medication, deaf and blind defendants, limited English proficiency, juveniles, elderly defendants, low literacy, indigence, and shackling - plus a vulnerability note inside every objection entry in the book.16 fill-in forms, from the first letter to counsel through the notice of appeal.Tear-out Objection Quick-Cards at the back, findable by flipping.The exact words to say, in quotation marks, short enough to say standing up.Verbatim text of the Federal Rules of Evidence, the constitutional provisions, and the key Rules of Criminal Procedure, so you can check the book against the actual law.CURRENT THROUGH 2026Includes the 2023, 2024, and 2025 amendments to the Federal Rules of Evidence - the rewritten Rule 702 expert standard, the new Rule 106 completeness provision, the new Rule 615(b), and brand-new Rule 107 on illustrative aids - plus the 2026 Supreme Court term: Pitchford v. Cain on the Batson rebuttal you are owed, Hunter v. United States on appeal waivers, Chatrie v. United States on geofence warrants, Ellingburg on restitution, Villarreal on talking to your lawyer while you are on the stand.Volume Two listing: This is Volume Two of two. Volume One covers the objections you make out loud at trial, including the full evidentiary catalog. Each volume contains the complete index set, so either one will tell you where to look.", "item_img_path" : "https://covers3.booksamillion.com/covers/bam/9/79/819/201/9798192017890_b.jpg", "price_data" : { "retail_price" : "39.95", "online_price" : "39.95", "our_price" : "39.95", "club_price" : "39.95", "savings_pct" : "0", "savings_amt" : "0.00", "club_savings_pct" : "0", "club_savings_amt" : "0.00", "discount_pct" : "10", "store_price" : "" } }
