Terms Used In Maryland Code, COURTS AND JUDICIAL PROCEEDINGS 10-206

  • Evidence: Information presented in testimony or in documents that is used to persuade the fact finder (judge or jury) to decide the case for one side or the other.
When a clerk of any court has replaced worn and dilapidated records in his office, and certified the new records as accurate copies of the old ones, the new records are substituted for and become the records of the court in lieu of the old records. The certified and substituted new records are admissible evidence to the same extent the old ones were.
