Vor dem Hintergrund der einschneidenden Beschränkungen des Beweisantragsrechts im Namen der Missbrauchsbekämpfung in jüngerer Zeit stellen sich die Fragen, wann ein Missbrauch dieses schärfsten Mittels der Verteidigung vorliegt und wie weit die Missbrauchsabwehr gehen darf. Die Arbeit stellt fest, dass das strafprozessuale Ziel der Wahrheitserforschung das Beweisantragsrecht einschließlich seiner starken verfahrensrechtlichen Garantien gebietet. Daran gemessen werden Fallgruppen des Missbrauchs des Beweisantragsrechts gebildet. Für die Unterbindung dieser Missbrauchsvarianten reichen die gesetzlichen Ablehnungsgründe grundsätzlich aus, während die kontinuierliche und massenhafte Stellung von nichtsachdienlichen Anträgen die einzige Ausnahme darstellt. Da diese Lücke mittels einer zurückhaltenden und einzelfallbezogenen Rechtsfortbildung gefüllt werden kann, sind die durch Rechtsprechung und Gesetzgebung neulich geschaffenen Maßnahmen überflüssig. Diese zu weitgehende Missbrauchsabwehr öffnet am Ende sogar neuen Missbräuchen Tor und Tür.». Abuse of the Right to Apply for Evidence to Be Taken in Criminal Proceedings and the Prevention of Abuse« The right to apply for evidence to be taken has been restricted in recent years in the name of the fight against abuse of this right, which raises the question of when this right is abused and how far the anti-abuse measures may go. This work examines the purpose of this right and categorizes on this basis abusive behaviors into several groups. Since all sorts of abuse of this right can be prevented by existing means, the recently introduced anti-abuse methods are superfluous, they even bring new risks of abuse.

Sollte Wahrheit, wie formuliert worden ist, wirklich die „Erfindung eines Lügners“ sein, so läge auf der Rede von Wahrheit im Recht eine doppelte moralische Hypothek. Wahrheitsansprüche im Recht sind mit Legitimationsansprüchen untrennbar verknüpft. Eine Entscheidung, die sich auf die Wahrheit der ihr zugrundeliegenden Rechtsbehauptung berufen kann, ist nicht mehr in Zweifel zu ziehen.Die Arbeit versucht, die Frage nach der Berechtigung von Wahrheitsansprüchen im Recht sowohl erkenntnistheoretisch als auch in Hinblick auf ihre praktische Bedeutung zu beantworten. Während die theoretische Analyse die Unhaltbarkeit der Theorie der „einzig richtigen Entscheidung“ (Dworkin) bestätigt, ergibt sich auf der Ebene der Funktionsanalyse ein differenziertes Bild. In bestimmten institutionellen Kontexten des Rechts ist die Vorstellung einer einzig richtigen Entscheidung als regulative Idee unverzichtbar. So beruht die Kontrolle von Verwaltungsentscheidungen durch Gerichte, aber auch die Überprüfung von Gerichtsurteilen im Instanzenzug auf dem Gedanken, dass es in jedem Fall eine und nur eine richtige Entscheidung gibt. Auf der anderen Seite gerät das Modell der einzig richtigen Entscheidung dort zur schlechten Fiktion, wo es, wie etwa im Bereich der Rückwirkung von Rechtsprechungsänderungen der Strafgerichte, zur Verkürzung von Grundrechtspositionen des Bürgers eingesetzt wird.

Justice systems increasingly rely on expert evidence. We are therefore obliged to justify the courts' ability to assess this evidence, especially when the courts must resolve disagreements between experts or address possible bias. By reintegrating contemporary evidence theory with applied philosophy, Deirdre Dwyer analyses the epistemological basis for the judicial assessment of expert evidence. Reintegrating evidence with procedure, she also examines how we might arrange our legal processes in order to support our epistemological and non-epistemological expectations. Including analysis of the judicial assessment of expert evidence in civil litigation (comparing practice in England and Wales with that in the United States, France, Germany and Italy), the book also provides the first detailed account of the historical development of English civil expert evidence and the first analysis of the use of party experts, single joint experts and assessors under the Civil Procedure Rules.

How does one prove the law? If your neighbor breaks your window, the law regulates how you can show your claim to be true or false; but how do you prove that in breaking your window your neighbor has broken the law? American jurisprudence devotes an elaborate body of doctrine-and an equally elaborate body of accompanying scholarly commentary-to worrying about how to prove facts. It establishes rules for the admissibility of evidence, creates varying standards of proof, and assigns burdens of proof that determine who wins or loses when the facts are unclear. But the law is shockingly inexplicit when addressing these issues with respect to the proof of legal claims. Indeed, the entire language of evidentiary proof, so sophisticated when it comes to questions of fact, is largely absent from the American legal system with respect to questions of law. As Gary Lawson shows, legal claims are inherently objects of proof, and whether or not the law acknowledges the point openly, proof of legal claims is just a special case of the more general norms governing proof of any claim. As a result, similar principles of evidentiary admissibility, standards of proof, and burdens of proof operate, and must operate, in the background of claims about the law. This book brings these evidentiary principles for proving law out of the shadows so that they can be analyzed, clarified, and discussed. Viewing legal problems through this lens of proof illuminates debates about everything from constitutional interpretation to the role of stipulations in litigation. Rather than prescribe resolutions to any of those debates, Evidence of the Law instead provides a set of tools that can be used to make those debates more fruitful, whatever one's substantive views may be. As lawyers, judges, and legal subjects confront uncertainty about what the law is, they can, should, and must, Lawson argues, be guided by the same kinds of abstract considerations, structures, and doctrines long used to make determinations about questions of fact.

This extensively revised second edition is a rigorous introduction to the construction and criticism of arguments about questions of fact, and to the marshalling and evaluation of evidence at all stages of litigation. It covers the principles underlying the logic of proof; the uses and dangers of story-telling; standards for decision and the relationship between probabilities and proof; the chart method and other methods of analyzing and ordering evidence in fact-investigation, in preparing for trial, and in connection with other important decisions in legal processes and in criminal investigation and intelligence analysis. Most of the chapters in this new edition have been rewritten; the treatment of fact investigation, probabilities and narrative has been extended; and new examples and exercises have been added. Designed as a flexible tool for undergraduate and postgraduate courses on evidence and proof, students, practitioners and teachers alike will find this book challenging but rewarding.
