In limine definition

In limine literally means at the threshold. Motions in limine are motions made before the beginning of trial requesting the judge rule that certain evidence may or may not be introduced at trial.
In limine means “on or at the threshold; at the very beginning; preliminary.” The purpose of a motion in limine is to obtain a pretrial ruling on evidentiary disputes and to avoid the admission of unduly prejudicial evidence to a jury. State ex rel. Berger v. Superior Ct., 108 Ariz. 396, 499, P.2d 152 (1972). Where a sufficiently specific motion in limine is made and ruled upon on the merits, the objection raised in that motion is preserved for appeal, without the need for specific objection at trial. State v. Burton, 144 Ariz. 248, 697 P.2d 331 (1985).
