#25 Trial Lawyer & Director (30 March 2004)

To: John
From: Bronax

Search John Appleman. Wrote whole series of Insurance Law, that isn't it. It would be anything with word, Trial in title. He was local semi genius who roved midwest trying cases for others. Really organized trial practice into science and opened it up. Also, old and dated, yet still good for exploration of creative use of evidence would be any old books by Melvin Belli, Say, Encylopedia of Trials, Students One Volume Edition. Go to your local law school bookstore, and check out the paper back section, and the trial practice section.

Remember lawyer presenting trial is like director presenting movie or play. Complete, persuasive, creative, fresh. Works for jury as well as for audience.
