BlackStone 66 Posted June 7, 2011 I can't find any major cases that were involved in the establishment of the hearsay rule.... if anyone can help me find them I'd be super fucking happy.... I've been hung up on this piece of information all day trying to find it and I just can't find it anywhere.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BlackStone 66 Posted June 7, 2011 That is definitely a step in the right direction... now to see if I can find the sources they used to work off of since wikipedia is banned by my college, soon to be banned by schools in general if I've read correctly from the newsletters.

No, its because wikipedia is easily edited by a large portion of users and as such cannot be reliable as a credible resource Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fruggles 23 Posted June 7, 2011 .... No, its because wikipedia is easily edited by a large portion of users and as such cannot be reliable as a credible resourcebut it's a reliable way of finding informationI was a pretty involved wikipedia editor for ~1.5 years (until I went outside...), and I know that when stuff gets changed (improperly), it is very often fixed within 10 mins, and for sure within the hour - that's more true today than ever with the large number of editors, and the editors of which I speak are the ones that have the ability to lock topics from being erroneously edited...it's a pretty good system.But as far as we're talking, as a source, it should never be used - it's not a source, never claimed to be, but when you say "banned" it makes me think your school doesn't allow its use, and has it blocked from the interwebz...extreme visualization? ya.
