1. What evidentiary issues are presented in this story?
2. How does the jury addresses these issues?
3. What Rules of Evidence apply?
Prepare an IRAC memo to the judge explaining youranswers to these questions. Refer to the Federal Rules ofEvidence (even though this is not a federal case) and cite relevantcase law from New York in your answer.
In addition, explain in one or two paragraphs how you think thedefense attorney failed regarding witness testimony of either thedownstairs neighbor or the lady across the street.
