While there are many books on evidence and trial advocacy, there is very little written specifically on impeachment. For the trial lawyer and judge, it is one of the most confusing and misunderstood parts of the trial. Just as cross examination is the most difficult of trial skills, impeachment, usually a part of cross examination, is the most difficult of the difficult. Many, if not most, trial lawyers do not know what they can or cannot do to impeach. Most importantly, they do not know how to do what they can do. MacCarthy on Impeachment offers trial lawyers "weapons of mass destruction." This book reveals those "weapons" and offers instruction on how to use them"--Publisher's website. 517 3 $aImpeachment 606 $aExamination of witnesses$zUnited States 606 $aInterrogatorio de testigos$zEstados Unidos 607 $aUnited States$2fast 615 0$aExamination of witnesses 615 4$aInterrogatorio de testigos 676 $a347.7375 700 $aMacCarthy$b Terence$01470285 702 $aMacCarthy$b Sean P. 702 $aMacCarthy$b Terence F$c(Judge), 712 02$aAmerican Bar Association.$bSection of Litigation, 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910796735503321 996 $aMacCarthy on impeachment$93682001 997 $aUNINA
