Megan,
Diolch.
This is proving a fascinating thread. I've looked at The Old Bailey online, searching under "admitted evidence" in Keywords, with radio button set to "Phrase". Some great stuff.

I followed Peter Goodey's advice to ask the National Archives for advice, and thought that I would share with you their response.
"I am afraid that we cannot answer questions of historical fact or fiction. The National Archives holds the original documents of central government departments and law courts. We provide access to those documents but it is up to you to interpret them for yourself."
Many thoughts spring to mind, but as they have obviously become just a store cupboard I shall instead focus on a positive, namely: thank heavens for helachau.

Admitted evidence is evidence the judge has allowed to be used. It is up to the judge whether any evidence is admissible or not.
Cheers
GuyAs we have gained from the past, we owe the future a debt, which we pay by sharing today.

I checked a lot out on this thread and recall there was an item in The Times where a Recorder was criticising the practice of Judges in determining "admitted evidence" and advocating it should be laid down by Parliament. Apparently a lot of ne'er do wells escaped justice thereby.
