A quick definition of elemental fact:

An elemental fact is something that is true and exists in reality. It can be a tangible thing, an event, a relationship, or even a state of mind like an opinion. There are different types of facts, such as evidentiary facts that provide evidence for other facts, or dispositive facts that can cause the loss or gain of rights. Ultimate facts are the most important ones, as they are essential to a claim or defense. Facts can be disputed or undisputed, and they are used to help courts and agencies make decisions.

A more thorough explanation:

An elemental fact is a fact that actually exists and is an aspect of reality. It includes tangible things, actual occurrences, relationships, and states of mind such as intentions and opinions. It is essential to a claim or defense.

  • All people are mortal.
  • A car accident occurred on a specific date and time.
  • John intended to buy a house.

These examples illustrate that elemental facts are real and can be proven. They are not opinions or assumptions, but rather concrete pieces of information that are necessary to establish a claim or defense.
