Article 3
Presumptions in Civil Cases

RULE 301 | PRESUMPTIONS IN CIVIL CASES GENERALLY

In a civil case, unless a federal statute or these rules provide otherwise, the party against whom a presumption is directed has the burden of producing evidence to rebut the presumption. But this rule does not shift the burden of persuasion, which remains on the party who had it originally.

RULE 302 | APPLYING STATE LAW TO PRESUMPTIONS IN CIVIL CASES

In a civil case, state law governs the effect of a presumption regarding a claim or defense for which state law supplies the rule of decision.

Congratulations! You're now booked up on Title 3 (Presumptions in Civil Cases) of the Federal Rules of Evidence (Fed. R. Evid.)!

You'll probably need it when litigating your case in federal court.

As always, please get the justice you deserve.

Sincerely,
