Freda over @ Freda’s Voice has taken over the hosting of this fun weekly meme. All you have to do is:
* Grab a book, closest.
* Turn to page 56, find the fifth sentence.
* Post that sentence (plus one or two others if you like) along with these instructions on your blog or (if you do not have your own blog) in the comments section of the blog.
*Post a link along with your post back to Tonya’s blog
*Don’t dig for your favorite book, the coolest or most intellectual. Use the CLOSEST!
Authors: Adam Jay Epstein and Andrew Jacobson
My rating: 5 out of 5 stars

“This burden is met if the court determines that there are enough facts on an issue sufficient to support a decision by the trier of fact favorable to the party who has the production burden {in a jury trial, sufficient to “permit the case to go to jury”]; if the burden is not met, that party loses on that issue.”
