REBUTTING EVIDENCE
(bouvier) | REBUTTING EVIDENCE. That which is given by a party in the cause to explain,
repel, counteract or disprove facts given in evidence on the other side. The
term rebutting evidence is more particularly applied to that evidence given
by the plaintiff, to explain or repel the evidence given by the defendant.
2. It is a general rule that anything may be given as rebutting
evidence which is a direct reply ta that produced on the other side; 2
McCord, 161; and the proof of circumstances may be offered to rebut the most
positive testimony. Pet. C. C. 235. See Circumstances.
3. But there are several rules which exclude all rebutting evidence. A
party cannot impeach the validity of a promissory note which he has made or
endorsed; 3 John. Cas. 185; nor impeach his own witness, though he may
disprove, by other witnesses, matters to which he has testified; 3 Litt.
465, nor can be rebut or contradict what a witness has sworn to, which is
immaterial to the issue. 16 Pick. 153; 2 Bailey, 118.
4. Parties and privies are estopped from contradicting a written
instrument by parol proof, but this rule does not apply to strangers. 10
John. 229. But the parties may prove that before breach the agreement was
abandoned, or annulled by a subsequent agreement not in writing. 4 N. Hamp.
Rep. 196. And when the writing was made by another, as, where the log-book
stated a desertion, the party affected by it may prove that the entry was
false or made by mistake. 4 Mason, R. 541.

SURREBUTTER
(bouvier) | SURREBUTTER, pleading. The plaintiff's answer to the defendant's rebutter is
governed by the same rules as the replication. (q.v.) Vide 6 Com. Dig. 185;
7 Com. Dig. 389
|
TO REBUT
(bouvier) | TO REBUT. To contradict; to do away as, every homicide is presumed to be
murder, unless the contrary appears from evidence which proves the death;
and this presumption it lies on the defendant to rebut by showing that it
was justifiable or excusable. Allis. Prin. 48.
