Our previous venture into the evidence space was Hong Kong Evidence Casebook (2004). There has been no up-to-date text since.

This is the only text that discusses Chinese-language cases which are not covered in any competitor title. These decisions are important as appellate courts explain the law, it is the lower courts, where trials are increasingly being conducted in Chinese, where we see the law being applied.

Written as a learning and reference aid, each chapter contains introductory sections which tie the focus of the specific chapter with the entire framework of the law of evidence.

Chapter 1 – Introduction: Evidence as an essential component in litigation
Chapter 2 – Burden and Standard of Proof
Chapter 3 – Competence and Compellability
Chapter 4 – Witnesses
Chapter 5 – Hearsay Evidence
Chapter 6 – Confession
Chapter 7 – Illegally obtained evidence and Court’s Power to Exclude Evidence
Chapter 8 – Identification Evidence
Chapter 9 – Character Evidence
Chapter 10 – Opinion Evidence
Chapter 11 – Privilege and immunity
