Highlight

A proper foundation must be established before witnesses may refer to notes or to other documents to refresh their memory, and the proper foundation requires witnesses to show a need to refresh their memory and to confirm the notes will assist them in refreshing their memory.
Opposing counsel has the right at trial to inspect a document used to refresh witnesses' recollections, to cross-examine the witnesses on the document, and to introduce relevant portions of the document into evidence.
A new written promise to pay a debt may revive a debt that is barred by the statute of limitations.
Whether a party has breached a lease is a finding of fact.
