1823. Novr. 8
Constitutional Code

§. 4. Testimony, for what excludable

(1)

Art. 5 1. The feat of deception and consequent misdecision
let no evidence be forborne to be received or extracted.

Art. 6 2. For suspicion and scrutiny, untrustworthiness
apprehended on the score of interest or immorality moral
inaptitude, affords appropriate and sufficient cause,
for exclusion, not. Where moral the force of interest corruption and
moral inaptitude each maximized on the same
individual, he is in all his testimony has in the Codes of all
nations been admitted without objection. To exclude
the testimony of any individual is to licence all
injuries and all other crimes committed on his person
or in his presence.

Art. 3. On the score of preponderant evil in the
shape of delay, vexation and expence – on that score and
that alone may evidence be forborne to be received or
extracted.

(2)

Art. 4. As on no such score as that of
of deception and misdecision should the testimony of a party
be excluded while that of an individual who is not a party is admitted
be excluded, so neither on the other hand ought should
any instrument of security which is employed in the endeavour to give
security secure the Judge mind against deception and misdecision in the
case of the testimony of an extraneous witness be
omitted to be employed in the case of the testimony of a
party. In particular if punishment for the purpose punishment in any degree is employed in the one
case in so ought should it in a degree not conform in the others.

6. 8. If in one stage of the course suit punishment is thus
employed so should it in every other: more particularly
in that stage in which the effect of deception produced by
falshood is greater than in any other stage.
