“This book is a game changer.” —Richard S. Jaffe. Jaffe, Hanle, Whisonant & Knight, P.C., Founding and Senior Partner
The Rule-Out method of criminal defense, easily learned, gets most jurors to want to decide verdicts based solely on reasonable doubts – which, perhaps unexpectedly, few jurors normally do on their own no matter how you explain it. Instead, most convictions result from burden shifting, the usual demand by jurors that the defense attorney prove innocence. Rule Out prevents this, teaches how to find plentiful reasonable doubts, and shows how to avoid the common practices that cause most convictions.
Change your approach to trial and the fate of your defendant with the crucial Rule-Out Method.
David Ballhas guided criminal defense and civil plaintiff ’s cases for 32 years, including on more than 50 capital cases. He’s written four bestselling advocacy books, teaches CLEs and public defenders’ offices and the JAG Corps at Camp Lejeune and Fort Bragg, and taught for Federal District 1 judges. Trained in science, engineering, and research, he’s also spent a large part of his career in professional theater as a director and playwright, and his theater students have gone on to win Oscars, Emmys, and Tonys. He received NCAJ’s Charles L. Becton trial advocacy teaching award and taught at such law schools as Duke (Senior Lecturer), the University of North Carolina, Campbell (Adjunct), Loyola (Los Angeles), and the University of Minnesota. He’s been part of a research project into criminal juror decision-making funded in part by the National Science Foundation (NSF) and conducted by Duke University’s Institute for Brain Sciences (DIBS).
