Re: Admissability of tapes into evidence

I think this clause is a worth a try.

Just one nitpicky thing - I would have thought the correct word would be
"parol" - not "parole".

Could this be an alternative to our recording issue?

In theory, there may be some jurisdictions that do not allow tapes to be
admissable because of issues other than relevance--such as authenticity. It
is hard to know the Evidence Rules of every jurisdiction. I would suggest the
following language:

The parties to this Agreement agree that any such recording are admissable in
any legal proceeding for any matters relevant to the Agreement, except for
those recordings that violate the Parole Evidence Rule of the applicable
jurisdiction.
