Crawford and Beyond: Revisited in Dialogue Friday, September 29, 2006 9:00 a.m. – 4:30 p.m. CLE Credit Available The United States Supreme Court’s 2004 decision in Crawford v. Washington dramatically altered the landscape of the Sixth Amendment Confrontation Clause and its limitations on the admissibility of certain hearsay statements. In Crawford, the Court categorically held that out-of-court “testimonial” statements made by a person who did not testify at trial were not admissible against a criminal defendant. Although the opinion identified a few statements as testimonial, such as those made during police interrogation, the definition of testimonial was left for another day.
On Friday, September 29, 2006, a group of noted scholars and practitioners revisited Crawford and explored the definition of testimonial statements in light of Davis and Hammon as well as a host of related Confrontation Clause/hearsay issues. This event followed our extremely successful February 2005 full-day symposium, “Crawford and Beyond: Exploring the Future of the Confrontation Clause in Light of its Past,” published in the Brooklyn Law Review.
