Codified Rules of Evidence 

Federal Rules of Evidence
United States: Federal Rules of Evidence: Official Government Site (mainly about proposed amendments to rules of procedure & evidence)

California Evidence Code

Other States

New York: Pratt on the (Abortive) Evidence Codification Movement in New York

Canada Evidence Act


Model Rules

Uniform Rules of Evidence
  • The Uniform Rules of Evidence now largely mimic the Federal Rules of Evidence, and the URE are therefore less of a "model" than they once were. Nevertheless, there are differences between the FRE and the URE, and the differences can be instructive.
