Practice question: Quantum of Evidence

Multiple Choice Hard

Practice question

In a disputed employment event, authenticated contemporaneous directives identify an available assignment, while the opposing party offers only a bare denial and no specific response to receipt or contents. A tribunal must decide what the record establishes. Which approach reflects Radaza?
  1. Weigh the actual relevant documents and denial in context rather than assume the allegation defeats them
  2. Accept every bare denial as conclusive
  3. Treat all employer documents as true regardless of authenticity
  4. Require criminal proof for every fact
  5. Ignore the documents because a complaint was filed
