The Oklahoma Evidence Manual provides a practical, rule-based guide to the Oklahoma Evidence Code, helping lawyers, judges and legal professionals understand, apply and argue evidentiary issues in litigation, trial practice and evidentiary hearings. The manual begins with practical guidance on applying evidence rules, including foundation, motions in limine, objections, fairness tools and the RIP framework for analyzing admissibility. It then follows the structure of the Oklahoma Rules of Evidence, covering general provisions, judicial notice, presumptions, relevance, privileges, witness competency and impeachment, expert and opinion testimony, hearsay, authentication and the contents of writings, recordings and photographs.

Combining doctrinal explanation with courtroom-focused application, the manual serves as a practical resource for preparing, presenting, challenging and preserving evidence in Oklahoma civil and criminal proceedings. Organized to mirror the Oklahoma Rules of Evidence, it provides practitioners with efficient access to guidance on key evidentiary topics, including relevance, character evidence, privileges, witness examination, expert testimony, hearsay exceptions and authentication requirements.

Written for litigation attorneys, judges and legal professionals, the manual supports trial preparation, motion practice, evidentiary hearings and courtroom advocacy. Practical tools, sample motions and quick-reference materials help users address common evidence challenges while developing stronger evidentiary arguments and litigation strategies.
