About the Seminar
The South Carolina Bar-CLE Division is proud to present the 2022 edition of one of our most popular seminars.  Designed by Supreme Court Justice John Cannon Few, this innovative, powerful, and practical seminar always takes an entertaining and insightful look at some of the thorniest evidence problems any trial lawyer or judge could face, and this year is no exception.  This year's seminar features speakers with diverse professional backgrounds, including prosecution, criminal defense, civil defense, and plaintiffs.  Not only will the speakers interact with each other throughout the seminar, but there will also be a roundtable panel discussion where the panelists answer your questions.  Use #EvidenceCLE to follow along on Twitter to see this discussion and submit your questions!  This program also includes an hour of Ethics content.
