    • Evidence
  • Evidence as to an oral admission claimed to have been made out of court should be considered with caution and weighed with great care. The person testifying to the claimed admission may have been mistaken, or may have misunderstood or misquoted the speaker, or may not have expressed clearly the meaning the speaker intended. If, however, an oral admission made out of court is proved by credible evidence, you may treat it as trustworthy and consider it along with other evidence in the case.
