Effect of admissions

It is settled law that the best evidence in the case is the admission of the opposite party. Admissions are valuable evidence because when a party himself admits to being true, it may be reasonably presumed to be so until the presumption is rebutted. The fact admitted must be taken to be established. The effect of admission is merely to shift the onus of disproving on the party, making them unless a plea of estoppels can be successfully invoked. It is well settled that admission is the best evidence that an opposing party can rely upon, though not conclusive, is a decisive matter unless successfully withdrawn or proved erroneous. There cannot be better evidence than one’s admission.
