Views (Evidence law) (1 Viewer)

[MochiGirl15]

Simple question really, why would one argue in court that a piece of evidence should be considered as a 'view' under s53 of the Evidence Act 1995 (NSW)? Is that because views are subject to more stringent monitoring and other Common Law requirements which do not apply to say, in-court demonstrations?

(Yes I'm referring to Evans v The Queen)


Thanks in advance for any constructive advice!

the whole point of s53 is that parties make an application for a demo, experiment or inspection to be conducted and the judge must follow certain procedural req's b4 allowing it.
