intercourse; a character that measures up as good among
people of the community in which the person lives, or that is
up to the standard o the average citizen; that status which

LEGAL ASPECT OF CHARACTER:
CHARACTER EVIDENCE
RULE 130, RULES OF COURT- RULES OF AMISSIBILITY
GENERAL RULE
CHARACTER EVIDENCE
 SEC 51. Character evidence not generally admissible,
exceptions:-
a. In criminal cases:
 The accused may prove his good moral character which is
pertinent to the moral trait involved in the offense charged.
 Unless in rebuttal, the persecution may not prove his bad
moral character which is pertinent to the moral trait
involved in the offense charged.
 The good or bad moral character of the offended party may
be proven if it tends to establish in any reasonable degree
the probability or improbability of the offense charge,
b. In Civil cases:

Evidence of the moral character of a

party in civil cases is admissible only
when pertinent to the issue of character
involved in the case.
c. In the case provided for in Rule 132, Section 14, (46a,
47a)

The rule is that the character or reputation of a party is

regarded as legally irrelevant in determining a controversy
so that evidence relating thereto is not
Admissible.

REASON: If the issue in the case were allowed to be

influenced by evidence of the character or reputation of
the parties, the trial would be apt to have aspects of a
popularity contest rather than a factual injury into the
merits of the case.
EXCEPTIONS TO THE GENERAL RULE
(see RULE 130, RULES OF COURT)
 Whilethe Good or Bad Moral Character
may be availed of as an aid to
determine the probability or
improbability of the commission of an
offense (Section 15, Rule 123), there
are cases where evidence of good or
bad moral character is Not availed off.
LEGAL EFFECT OF CHARACTER AND
REPUTATION
CHARACTER REPUTATION LEGAL EFFECTS
Good Character Good Reputation Presumption of innocence; an
inference arises that the
accused did not commit the
crime charged.
Good Character High Reputation Theory: the accused is not likely
to have committed the act
charged against him.
WHEN BAD MORAL CHARACTER MAY BE
PROVED
 In rebuttal and when such evidence is pertinent to the
moral trait involved in the offense charged (Sub-par 2,
Sec.15, Rule 130)
 Note: Once the defendant raises the issue of his good
character, the prosecution may, in rebuttal, offer
evidence of the defendant’s bad character. Otherwise, a
defendant, secure from reputation, would have a
license to unscrupulously impose a false character upon
the tribunal.
NATURE OF CHARACTER EVIDENCE

 PRIVILEGE OF THE DEFENDANT – The

offering of character evidence on his
behalf is a privilege of the defendant
and the prosecution cannot comment
on the failure of the defendant to
produce such evidence.
