§ 350 [Relevance Required for Admissibility]

Courts only allow relevant evidence in a case. This means that anything presented as evidence must connect to the facts being decided.

If a piece of evidence has nothing to do with the case, a judge will not allow it. For example, if you are in a contract dispute, evidence about an unrelated event in your past would likely be kept out.

This rule protects everyone in a case by keeping the focus on what actually matters. It helps prevent the trial from getting sidetracked by information that has no bearing on the outcome.
