|
COMPETENCY
(bouvier) | COMPETENCY, evidence. The legal fitness or ability of a witness to be heard
on the trial of a cause. This term is also applied to written or other
evidence which may be legally given on such trial, as, depositions, letters,
account-books, and the like.
2. Prima facie every person offered is a competent witness, and must be
received, unless Lis incompetency (q.v.) appears. 9 State Tr. 652.
3. There is a difference between competency and credibility. A witness
may be competent, and, on examination, his story may be so contradictory and
improbable that he may not be believed; on the contrary he may be
incompetent, and yet be perfectly credible if he were examined.
4. The court are the sole judges of the competency of a witness, and
may, for the purpose of deciding whether the witness is or is not competent,
ascertain all the facts necessary to form a judgment. Vide 8 Watts, R. 227;
and articles Credibility; Incompetency; Interest; Witness.
5. In the French law, by competency is understood the right in a court
to exercise jurisdiction in a particular case; as, where the, law gives
jurisdiction to the court when a thousand francs shall be in dispute, the
court is competent if, the sum demanded is a thousand francs or upwards,
although the plaintiff may ultimately recover less.
|
COMPETENT WITNES
(bouvier) | COMPETENT WITNESS. One who is legally qualified to be heard to testify in a
cause. In Kentucky, Michigan, and Missouri, a will must be attested, for the
purpose of passing lands, by competent witnesses; but if wholly written by
the testator, in Kentucky, it need not be so attested. See Attesting
witness; Credible witness; Disinterested witness; Respectable witness; and
Witness.
|
INCOMPETENCY
(bouvier) | INCOMPETENCY, evidence. The want of legal fitness, or ability in a witness
to be heard as such on the trial of a cause.
2. The objections to the competency (q.v.) of a witness are four-fold.
The first ground is the want of understanding; a second is defect of
religious principles; a third arises from the conviction of certain crimes,
or infamy of character; the fourth is on account of interest. (q.v.) 1
Phil. Ev. 15.
INCOMPETENCY, French law. The state of a judge who cannot take cognizance of
a dispute brought before him; it implies a want of jurisdiction.
2. Incompetency is material, ratione materia, or personal, ratione
personae. The first takes place when a judge takes cognizance of a matter
over which another judge has the sole jurisdiction, and this cannot be cured
by the appearance or agreement of the parties.
3. The second is, when the matter in dispute is within the jurisdiction
of the judge, but the parties in the case are not; in which case they make
the judge competent, unless they make their objection before they. take
defence. See Peck, 374; 17 John. 13; 12 Conn. 88; 3 Cowen, Rep. 724; 1 Penn.
195; 4 Yeates, 446. When a party has a privilege which exempts him from the
jurisdiction, he may waive the privilege. 4 McCord, 79; Wright, 484; 4 Mass.
593; Pet. C. C. R. 489; 5 Cranch, 288; 1 Pet. R. 449; 4 W. C. C. R. 84; 8
Wheat. 699; Merl. Rep. mot Incompetence.
4. It is a maxim in the common law, aliquis non debet esse judex in
propria causa. Co. Litt. 141, a; see 14 Vin. Abr. 573; 4 Com. Dig. 6. The
greatest delicacy, is constantly observed on the part of judges, so that
they never act when there could be the possibility of doubt whether they
could be free from bias, and even a distant degree of relationship has
induced a judge to decline interfering. 1 Knapp's Rep. 376. The slightest
degree of pecuniary interest is considered as an insuperable objection. But
at common law, interest forms the only ground for challenging a judge. It is
not a ground of challenge that he has given his opinion before. 4 Bin. 349;
2 Bin. 454. See 4 Mod. 226; Comb. 218; Hard. 44; Hob. 87; 2 Binn. R. 454; 13
Mass. R. 340; 5 Mass. R. 92; 6 Pick. 109; Peck, R. 374; Coxe, Rep. 190; 3
Ham. R. 289; 17 John. Rep. 133; 12 Conn. R. 88; 1 Penning R. 185; 4 Yeates,
R. 466; 3 Cowen, R. 725; Salk. 396; Bac. Ab. Courts, B; and the articles
Competency; Credibility; Interest; Judge; Witness.
