Rule established
Objections to the admissibility of documents or evidence raised during trial should ordinarily not stall the trial's progress; the trial court should provisionally allow the document to be marked, noting the objection, and decide on the admissibility question at the final judgment stage, along with the rest of the case, in order to avoid piecemeal appeals and unnecessary delay in the trial process.
