What is evidence in law?
Evidence is information or material used to establish disputed facts.
Key concepts and application
Documents, witnesses, expert reports and electronic records are different forms. Existence of a record does not prove lawful acquisition or reliability. Relevance, authenticity and procedure require separate analysis.
Rights, procedure and limits
Timing and method of submission vary by proceeding. Preserve original integrity and personal data. A court assesses evidence in the context of the whole file.
