Louisiana Code of Evidence : ウィキペディア英語版 | Louisiana Code of Evidence
The Louisiana Code of Evidence〔The citation of this Code by this title is authorised by (article 1102 ) of this Code.〕 is a code of evidence law, enacted by section 1 of Act 515 of 1988, under Louisiana Civil Law. The Code became effective on 1 January 1989,〔Act 515 of 1988, section 12(3). (Digitised copy ).〕 and governs proceedings in the courts of Louisiana to the extent and with the exceptions stated in Article 1101 of the Code.〔Louisiana Code of Evidence, (article 101 )〕 The Bill for Act 515 of 1988 was Senate Bill 155, introduced by Senator Ben Bagert. Laws for a code of evidence was introduced in 1818, 1956, 1986, and 1987. After nearly two centuries of failed attempts to codify Louisiana's evidence law, the Louisiana State Legislature enacted an Evidence Code in 1988. == History ==
The evidentiary reform movement began in Britain in the early nineteenth century under the leadership of Jeremy Bentham. "Within a short time of the publication of Bentham's ‘Theory of Judicial Evidence’ in 1818, Louisiana's Edward Livingston,〔Force, Pugh, Rault and Triche, "Louisiana Code of Evidence - A Retrospective and Prospective View" (1989) 49 La. L. Rev. 689〕 considered "America's Bentham", by Wigmore, prepared and proposed to the Louisiana Legislature a Code of Evidence for this state, designed to govern proceedings in both civil and criminal cases. Had it been adopted, the development of evidence law in the United States might well have been very different. However, the Livingston Evidence Code was not enacted. By the middle of the twentieth century, Louisiana evidence law had become notoriously murky and uncertain. This confusion led to a second attempt at codification in 1956. After some ten years of effort, the Louisiana Law Institute abandoned the project, in part because the contending forces simply could not agree.
