Chapter 80
Encyclopedia of Information Technology Curriculum Integration
Federal rules of evidences are rules allowed by Congress and enforced by the U.S. Supreme Court, which govern the admissibility of evidence in Federal court rooms in the United States. These rules govern how evidence can be submitted, and are meant to ensure the fairness of evidence without delay or prejudice. They are also meant to ensure the uniformity of legally admissible evidence and reduce the variability that often varied from court to course before they were enacted.
