Book excerpt: Motions shape the battlefield of courtroom practice. Whether providing advanced knowledge of the admissibility of alleged prior bad acts by a client or seeking a ruling on a proposed panel instruction, motions in military practice are instrumental in preparing for the war of a court-martial trial. Failing to approach motions practice as a pivotal step in shaping the battlefield for the war of a court-martial trial does a disservice to one's client. This book dares you to step away from the "shared drive" and instead to take a fresh approach with each motion for every case. I have dissected my own process and am providing the insight that I derived for your benefit in the form of this book. My law firm's mantra is that we want to be where we can do the most good. My goal for this book is the same: to elevate the practice. One motion at a time.
