Does documentary evidence override incorrect oral testimony in court?
Can you suggest case laws where it was held that when the author of a document makes a mistake during oral testimony, but the actual fact is mentioned correctly in the document, then the documentary evidence prevails over oral evidence?

In law, documentary evidence generally prevails over oral evidence, especially if the oral statement contradicts a written record. It is advised to consult an expert lawyer who will assist you with best related judgements. For further legal assistance contact us on our helpline number.
