Text
Ch. Evidence
Art. 1. Exceptions excepted, on the occasion and or for the
purpose of any suit, commenced or contemplated, every
person is admissible to furnish Evidence.
Art. 2. So Except as excepted every on the occasion
and or for the purpose of every any suit, commenced or contemplated
every person is compellable to furnish evidence.
Art. In regard to admissibility, a general cause of exception
is to the encroachment designed or undesigned which
by the reception of the evidence in question would be made on
the time of the Judicatory. If there were no restraint restriction by a
multitude of persons, with or without concert, held and without
design or with sinister design, tendering their evidence, the whole
of the judicial time of a judicatory might be absorbed.
In so far as litigation is expensive, and no witness
person other than a party to the suit, the a suit being actually commenced
is person admitted to furnish evidence, a restraint is imposed
by the expence. But where as in this Code the expence of litis-contestation
is minimized, this indiscriminate restraint has
no place.
