Summary
In civil cases, evidence should be disclosed during the discovery phase, not at trial. The standard of proof is preponderance of the evidence, not beyond reasonable doubt. The discovery process follows pleadings, where parties file initial documents, then exchange information and evidence. Pre-trial motions may resolve certain issues before the trial. If unresolved, the case proceeds to trial, followed by post-trial motions and judgment. Consulting an attorney for tailored advice is recommended.Full Conversation
