Appeals Tip of the Week: Courtesy of David Andrews, Office of the Appellate Defender
To preserve issues for appeal, object to any evidence that you suspect is inadmissible. Make sure you provide specific grounds for your objections and constitutionalize your objections. Lastly, get a ruling. If you don’t get a ruling, the argument might be waived on appeal.
