Rule 505(c) tracks U.R.E. 505(c) except that the last sentence is based on the draft of F.R.E. 506(c) instead of U.R.E. 505(c).

Section 4316 of Title 10 [repealed], relating to exemption of minister of religion from testifying, should be repealed since it is superseded by this rule.

D.R.E. 505 was amended in 2017 in response to the 2011 restyling of the Federal Rules of Evidence. The amendment is intended to be stylistic only. The pre-2017 “Comment” to D.R.E. 505 was revised only as necessary to reflect the 2017 amendments. There is no intent to change any result in ruling on evidence admissibility.
