§ 140 [Evidence Defined]

Evidence is anything used in court to show that something did or did not happen. It can be spoken words from a witness, written documents, or physical objects that someone can see, hear, or touch.

For example, a signed contract, a photo, a weapon, or a witness's spoken account of what they saw can all be evidence. The key point is that the item or statement must be used to prove a fact in the case.
