Ronald L. Carlson's book, "Carlson on Evidence" (co-authored with M. Carlson), was recently cited by the Georgia Court of Appeals in the case Baker v. Cuthbertson. The court referenced the book to explain the standard for measuring prejudice in a civil case when a party claims prejudicial evidence was used against them at trial.

This citation marks the 78th time that this text has been used by Georgia appellate courts to resolve evidentiary issues.
