Rules
Game Rules.
1. We hear the question or statement.
2. When the trial lawyer calls objection we stop the video.
3. Players have 10 sec to decide if the Judge should overrule.
4. The video starts again and we see who is correct?
5. Have Fun and Learn about Legal Objections.

Calls for Speculation:
- the question asks the witness to "guess the answer" rather than to rely on known facts.

Asked and answered:
- when the same attorney continues to ask the same question and they have already received an answer.

Lack of Foundation:
- the question relates to matters of which the witness's personal knowledge has not been established.

Leading question (direct examination only):
- the question suggests the answer to the witness.
Leading questions are permitted if the attorney conducting the examination has received permission to treat the witness as a hostile witness. Leading questions are also permitted on cross-examination, as witnesses called by the opposing party are presumed hostile.

Compound question:
- multiple questions asked together.

Irrelevant or immaterial:
- the question is not about the issues in the trial.

Non-responsive:
- the witness's response constitutes an answer to a question other than the one that was asked, or no answer at all.

Hearsay:
- An out of court statement used to prove the fact that the statement is being offered for.
- However, there are several exceptions to the rule against hearsay.
