Judicial Fact-finding

Judicial Fact-Finding is the formal process within legal adjudication by which a court determines the existence or non-existence of factual propositions relevant to resolving a dispute, distinguished from legislative or administrative fact-gathering by its reliance on adversarial evidence, procedural rules of admissibility, and the application of a legally prescribed standard of proof to reach a legally binding determination.
