A quick definition of evidencing mark:

Term: Evidencing Mark

Definition: An evidencing mark is a group of clues or evidence that, when put together, can reliably identify a single object or person. This term is often used in criminal cases to establish a perpetrator's identity, but it can also be used in civil cases to prove whether or not an event occurred. Essentially, an evidencing mark is a collection of evidence that helps to solve a mystery or prove a point.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: A group of circumstances that, when taken as a whole, form a composite feature that can be reliably associated with a single object. This term is used more frequently in criminal cases than in civil. In criminal cases, it usually refers to evidence that establishes a perpetrator's identity, but in civil cases, it often refers to evidence that an event did or did not occur. It is also known as evidencing feature or evidential mark.

  • A fingerprint found at the scene of a crime is an evidencing mark that can be used to identify the perpetrator.
  • A surveillance video showing a person entering a building at the time of a burglary is an evidencing feature that can be used to establish their involvement in the crime.
  • In a civil case, a signed contract can be an evidencing mark that proves an agreement was made between two parties.

These examples illustrate how a group of circumstances or evidence can be used to reliably associate a single object or event. In criminal cases, evidencing marks are often used to identify a perpetrator, while in civil cases, they are used to prove or disprove the occurrence of an event.

Tell us what's important to you

Yeah, I would have definitely gone to the hotel if I knew they booked a room for me. At the very least, it would be proper to show up personally and explain your extraneous circumstances

Nah but it's in your name. I went to an ASD. I asked the school for an extra night and they gave it to me. You just need to plan things better.

This is like peak disconenct between the male and female brain.
16:45

Law-Shark

Law-Shark
16:45
You live and you learn
16:45
because i did let one of the staff know i'd be leaving early and thought that would be enough
16:46
but i was confused why i got an e-mail with a room cuz I didn't ask for it at all
Law-Shark
16:46
Well, you know now what to do.
16:47
well on their end they prob shouldn't just be buying hotel rooms for ppl who don't request it and then getting mad I didn't go
16:48
goof
16:48
Did you get any materials for admitted students day explaining that they would be booking hotel rooms?
16:49
there was an opt in on the form but I didn't select yes
16:49
Hmm, that's weird
16:50
i think it's unprofessional of them to call you like what if you had an emergency and had to leave? why is it their business why you didn't stay? not like they're lacking money and $100.00 hotel room is gona make them bankrupt
16:50
i figured it was an error and I was on the road so I didn't read into it. plus it would make more sense for it to be the night before cuz it started at 9am? so I was like uhhh and paid it no mind
16:51
@bigfatsloth: that's what i'm saying, they were gonna pay no matter what
16:54
"This is like peak disconenct between the male and female brain." like bffr
16:55
It was probably an administrative error then. I can't imagine why they would book hotel rooms for people that didn't select yes. I would maybe follow up with them and apologize for the misunderstanding to avoid any awkwardness
