and why do they proffer?

nicoleg1982

The word proffer is derived from Anglo-French "por-", forth, and offrir, to offer.^[1] The act of proffering involves making an offer prior to any formal negotiations.In the context of a trial, to proffer (sometimes profer) means to offer evidence in support of an argument, or elements of an affirmative defense or offense. A party with the burden of proof must proffer sufficient evidence to carry that burden.For example, in support of a particular argument, a party may proffer documentary evidence or witnesses.Where a party is denied the right to introduce evidence because that evidence would be inflammatory, hearsay, or would lack sufficient authentication, that party must make a proffer of what the evidence would have shown in order to preserve the issue for appeal. Also; as in business, a proffer can be a sign of "good faith" a first offer or proposal, to show a willingness to "barter".see good faith bargaining, barter.

I'm sure they thought it was some grand tactic, but IDK that's necessarily the case here.

hes probably not allowed to testify for some reason but they still want to get his testimony on the record (outside presence of the jury).  not entirely sure though...i did workers comp stuff in administrative court when i was practicing so it was totally different!
