evidence

a ws of a pending case is a public document and it can be used as a evidence

Quick Summary

This discussion clarifies what qualifies as evidence in legal proceedings. It explains that while some case documents might become public upon resolution, not all are public beforehand. Crucially, only statements made under oath are considered evidence. Written statements, depositions, and cross-examinations serve distinct purposes, with cross-examination allowing witnesses to be confronted with prior statements to establish facts.

Those statements that are taken after administering oath only taken as evidence. Written statements or counters are different from deposition and cross-examination. If anyone appears for cross-examination, he can be confronted with his written statement or deposition and can bring value of evidence through getting admission of witness..
