Boards and Committees
of the Vermont Supreme Court
Advisory Committee on Rules of Evidence
|
|
|
 |
Information
The Supreme
Court promulgates rules of practice and procedure for all
state courts. The Supreme Court appoints an advisory
committee which reviews the operation and effectiveness of
the Rules of Evidence. The committee receives proposals for
changes in the rules and recommends to the Supreme Court any
necessary changes in these rules. Proposed rules are
circulated to the bar and public for comment and, when
required, the committee holds public hearings concerning
proposed rules or rules changes.
The nine members of the
committee include two trial court judges and seven other
members appointed by the Supreme Court. The Supreme
Court designates the chair of the committee. The Supreme
Court also appoints a lawyer to serve as reporter for
the committee. The reporter revises or drafts rules at
the request of the committee or the Supreme Court. The
reporter's notes, which are published in the Rules,
explain the history and application of the Rules.
