If a motion in limine is made, the judge may rule on the admissibility of certain evidence before the trial begins. This helps to prevent potentially prejudicial or irrelevant information from being presented to the jury. The judge can grant or deny the motion, or may also decide to defer ruling until the evidence is presented in court. Ultimately, the decision aims to ensure a fair trial by maintaining the integrity of the proceedings.

Is a judge required to rule on whether or not evidence is admissible in a motion for summary judgment?

In a motion for summary judgment, a judge is not required to rule on the admissibility of evidence in the same way they would during a trial. However, the judge must consider only evidence that is admissible under the rules of evidence when deciding the motion. If the evidence presented is not admissible, it cannot be used to support or oppose the motion, and the judge may need to address these issues to ensure a fair ruling. Ultimately, the judge's focus is on whether there are genuine disputes of material fact that warrant a trial.
