How to use "Objection" in context?
One of the main objections in the courtroom is called a "motion to strike." Oftentimes, this involves a contention between the plaintiff and the defendant over the admissibility of evidence. In a criminal trial, for example, the defendant may move to strike prosecutors' evidence that the accused injured someone else in the commission of the crime. The prosecutor might then argue that the evidence should not be excluded because it is relevant to the issue at hand.
