During a trial, a witness states they cannot remember the exact amount involved in a contract negotiation. The attorney presents a copy of the signed contract to the witness. Is this action appropriate for refreshing the witness's recollection?
Yes, because the contract can serve as a memory aid.
Yes, if the witness requests the document.
No, because introducing documents is not permitted during testimony.
Yes, presenting a copy of the signed contract is appropriate for refreshing the witness's recollection. The contract serves as a valid memory aid to help the witness recall specific details.
