Terry MacCarthy on Cross Examination - Part 1

The first in a series of lectures Mr. MacCarthy gave at Stetson which he has graciously allowed me to post here. Terry is a good friend, and a National Treasure! I commend him to you wholeheartedly. He is the master of teaching cross.

Thanks so much to your school for putting this on TH-cam.

Thanks for posting this, MacCarthy is a legend. I had the pleasure of working with him at the NCDC in Macon.

Terry is a National Treasure - no doubt about it!

The legend.

I had to log in just to say thank you. This is a tremendous resource!

[@heatherwood2449]

Its an art and a scuence. Once you get in the zone...

[@cookrich]

Thanks. I have Terry's book on cross-examination and I am thrilled to find copies of his lectures on this important topic. I strongly recommend the book, MacCarthy on Cross-Examination as well as these lectures to anyone interested in becoming a better trial attorney.

***** How can i get a copy of these lecture notes?

[@williamyoungjr.5488]

Great stuff. Hope to see you talk in person soon.

[@raindance59]

thank you sir

Terry is very entertaining in his dramatic garrulousness. It's rather like going to a bar (as differentiated from the State Bar) where law students informally hang out after school or work and engage with a favorite professor or two in a kind of shop talk complete with many amusing anecdotes.....
The big question: Does Terry have something against Ben Matlock's Cross?

[@RomanBlack599]

I really want to quote this on my thesis. Can someone help me and tell me the year of this lecture?

[@xxxluvi]

Great stuff

Skip to part 4. Terry wastes everyone's time until then. Take my word for it, or learn the hard way.

[@cliftt]

Agreed. Though I would've recommended 5. And then I would skip the the first 30 mins.

[@Alberturkey54]

He's so animated.

[@cameronherrington2799]

Sweet Jesus. If I spend the $88 to buy the kindle version will he get to the point? Great anecdotes and storytelling but if you're trying to glean some tips on cross from youtube I'd look elsewhere.

[@TheZooBrooksAB]

Storytelling.
Is.
The.
ENTIRE.
Point.

I'm tired of every video being about criminal case logic, nothing about civil law, where 95 percent of decisions are made.
