Ethics and Evidence Symposium

Fordham Law Review ran a symposium on evidence and ethics in its December 2007 issue. It's all available on the journal's website:

• Daniel J. Capra, Introduction, 76 Fordham L. Rev. 1225 (2007)

  The authors in this Symposium address three important questions about the interrelationship between ethics rules and evidence rules:
  (1) Do ethics rules impose any limitations on the use (and arguable abuse) of evidence rules?
  (2) Do evidence rules enforce ethical principles of lawyering, and if not, why not?
  (3) What specific areas of evidentiary practice are most in need of an infusion of ethical principles?
