## Definition

Foundation and Competency Objections are raised when a party in a legal proceeding believes that evidence lacks the necessary groundwork for admissibility (foundation) or when a witness lacks the qualifications to provide reliable testimony (competency). These objections aim to ensure that evidence and testimony meet legal standards for relevance, reliability, and expertise.
