California Evidence Code

The California Evidence Code is a set of laws that governs what can be used as evidence in legal proceedings in California. It outlines the types of evidence that can be presented in court, including witness testimony, documents, and physical objects, as well as rules for how this evidence can be collected and introduced. The code ensures that evidence is relevant, reliable, and admissible, helping to maintain fair legal processes. Essentially, it provides the framework for determining what information can be considered when making legal decisions in various cases.
