Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 4 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This esteemed treatise delves into the often complex subject of the onus probandi, or burden of proof, in legal proceedings. This topic is fundamental to all legal systems, as it determines which party must present evidence to support their claims or defenses. This book provides a comprehensive examination of the principles governing the onus probandi, exploring its application in both civil and criminal cases. The author begins by establishing the general rule that the party asserting a fact or point in question bears the responsibility of proving their assertion. However, the book delves deeper into the intricacies of this rule, recognizing that there may be antecedent grounds for believing one party's allegation more probable than the other, or that the means of proof may not be equally accessible to both parties. The book provides numerous examples to illustrate the application of these principles, helping readers grasp the nuances of the onus probandi. It also explores the concept of presumptions, which can shift the burden of proof in certain situations. This treatise is a valuable resource for legal professionals, students, and anyone interested in gaining a thorough understanding of the onus probandi and its practical implications in legal proceedings. Its insights are invaluable for navigating the complex evidentiary landscape and ensuring that justice is served.
