What is relevant evidence in a civil case?
California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from People v. Leon, F077831 (Cal. App. 2020):
As we previously noted, "[e]xcept as otherwise provided by statute, all relevant evidence is admissible." (Evid. Code, 351.) Relevant evidence includes " 'evidence [that] tends "logically, naturally, and by reasonable inference" to establish material facts such as identity' [Citation.]" (People v. Bivert (2011) 52 Cal.4th 96, 116-117) and "evidence relevant to the credibility of a witness" regarding material facts (Evid. Code, 210).
