This bill re-writes and modernizes Georgia's nearly 150 year old evidence code.  The new language largely tracks the Federal Rules of Evidence and applies to any motion, hearing or trial in Georgia's state courts on or after January 1, 2013.

The bill rewrites Title 24. It also modifies, in part, Titles 7-10, 14-17, 20, 22, 26, 28, 29, 31, 33-37, 40, 42-46, 48-50, 52, & 53.
