Summaries — Underlying Evidence Admitted (title revised 2013) is a legal term which refers to a process in which the parties in a case present summaries of the underlying evidence which has been admitted as part of the trial. This is often done to save time during the trial and to prevent the judge from having to go through each piece of evidence in detail. There are two types of Summaries — Underlying Evidence Admitted (title revised 2013): 1) Proffer Summaries and 2) Evidence Summaries. Proffer Summaries are generally prepared by the party presenting the evidence and contain a brief statement of the evidence that the party wishes to introduce. Evidence Summaries are prepared by the court and contain a more detailed description of the evidence that has been admitted. Both types of Summaries — Underlying Evidence Admitted (title revised 2013) are intended to provide the court with a clear and concise summary of the evidence admitted at the trial.
