A fact is an established truth , something that is evident , clearly seen, indisputable, beyond doubt. This term is widely misused by lawyers today, perhaps because some lawyers are more intent on winning their cases than sticking closely to the truth. Facts are real. Facts are not fanciful constructions of the mind.
Facts are facts.
Today's courts are perhaps too inundated by outrageous performances by which lawyers seek to lead juries to believe hypotheses based solely on opinions, circumstances, or unsupported legal rhetoric and courtroom drama. Facts should be the bedrock of American justice. Facts and facts alone. False That which is not true . That which is false should never be admitted as evidence .
