evidentiary issues

Evidentiary issues involve questions about whether certain evidence can be legally used in a case. This includes determining if the evidence is relevant, authentic, and obtained lawfully. Challenges may arise over whether the evidence is reliable or if it violates rights, such as privacy. For example, it could involve debating if a piece of evidence is fake or whether a confession was made voluntarily. Resolving evidentiary issues ensures that only proper, trustworthy information influences the case’s outcome, maintaining fairness and the integrity of the legal process.
