curative-admissibility doctrine

Read a random definition: liberty of contract

A quick definition of curative-admissibility doctrine:

The curative-admissibility doctrine is a rule that allows a party to present evidence that would normally be considered inadmissible in court. This is done to counteract the negative effects of improper evidence that was presented by the opposing party. The doctrine is used when simply striking the improper evidence is not enough to remove the prejudice it caused. Essentially, it is a way to level the playing field and ensure that both sides have a fair chance to present their case.

A more thorough explanation:

The curative-admissibility doctrine is a legal rule that allows a party to introduce evidence that would normally be inadmissible in court to counteract the negative effects of improperly admitted evidence presented by the opposing party. This doctrine is used when a motion to strike the evidence cannot fully remedy the harm caused by the opposing party's evidence.

For example, if a prosecutor in a criminal trial improperly introduces evidence of the defendant's prior criminal record, the defense may be allowed to introduce evidence of the defendant's good character to counteract the negative impression created by the prosecutor's evidence. This evidence would normally be inadmissible, but the curative-admissibility doctrine allows it to be introduced to remedy the harm caused by the prosecutor's evidence.

The curative-admissibility doctrine is used to ensure that both parties have a fair trial and that the jury is not unduly influenced by improperly admitted evidence. It is an important tool for ensuring that justice is served in legal proceedings.
