Proof of bad moral character of the accused in criminal


case the prosecution cannot prove the bad moral character
of the accused in its evidence in chip. It can only do so in
rebuttal. This means that the prosecution may not offer
evidence of character of the accused unless the accused
himself has offered evidence of his good moral character.
The prosecution therefore must wait until the accused has
put his character in issue during the proceedings. Where the
accused prove his good moral character pertinent to the
moral traits involved in the offense charge, though he opens
the door to the prosecution to prove that his character is in
fact bad period then and only then maybe the prosecution
proved the bad moral character of the accused.

Evidence of good moral character of a witness is not


admissible until such character has been impeached. It is
error for council to offer evidence of good moral character
of his witness who is present in court for the first time since
he could not have been previously impeached.

BURDEN OF PROOF onus probandi. Refers to the
obligation of a party to the litigation to persuade the court
that he is entitled to relief. It is the duty of a party to
present evidence on the facts in issue necessary to establish
his claim or defense by the amount of evidence required by
law.

Ei incumbit probation qui dicit, non qui negat-he who


asserts, not he who denies, must prove. If the defendant
admits that debt paid then it will be his duty to prove that it
was already been paid waive or otherwise extinguished.

In an eminent domain case the local government that seeks


to expropriate private property has the burden of proving to
show the existence of compliance with the elements for a
valid exercise of right of eminent domain. This is because
the burden of proof is on the party making allegations.

OK right thing requires the why is it necessary for us to know the categories of
evidence between unique object object with unique or
application of intelligence and object with no identifying what what's the importance
attention. of knowing the difference or the categories of object
evidence class please take note that when the object
when the evidence when the object evidence is an
object with no identifying mark there is a necessity to
establish the chain of posterity if the object evidence
is a unique object or object made unique there is no
need to establish the chain of custody it is only when
the object evidence is an object with no identifying
marks but the prosecution needs to establish the chain
of custody for example drugs in drugs material is
based punishment of the chain of custody so what are
the links in the chain of custody in drug cases.

Really identifiable marks or unique object


an example of a unique object is a car with plate The chain of possible such that all persons all persons
number that car assuming that the plate number is who in one way or another was able to come into
correct is segregated from the rest of the car so that possession of the dangerous drugs must be accounted
car is specific a firearm a licensed firearm it is a meaning they must testify on the degree of their
unique object in a sense that that file or this possession over the drugs otherwise if they were not
segregated from the rest of the firearm by its serial able to testify there will be a break in the links in the
number so that is a unique object there are objects chain of custody which might leave if it's still not
that are made identifiable or objects made unique explain might lead to the acquittal of the accused.
example knife knife is stuck is specific no it's a
generic thing let's say a knife was found at the scene
of the crime it was recovered by social and the social
officer marked this night and he put the marking on
the on the on the handle of the knife that is an object
made identifiable or object made unique what made it
unique is the marking that was put by disobey officer
the other the third type of object evidence is object
with no identifying mark example shabu that's the
object of saying is if they should say objects such say
no but they should go inside they should say so it is
object with no activity fiber and that example wine
that was stolen and the wine is inside the barrel it's at
the barrel which was stolen it's actually the wine so
the line has no identifying but now the question is
