In this episode Major Allen Abrams highlights some SCOTUS petitions that, although not military cases, may have an impact on military justice.  He then discusses United States v. Tate, where a gaff on the part of the court reporter resulted in a complete loss of a day of trial.  The issue was whether the trial judge's remedy was proper (it wasn't).  Major Abrams then walks us through how to lay a foundation for a presence sense impression and distinguishes that hearsay exception from others such as the excited utterance.
