A quick definition of quasi-admission:
A quasi-admission is when someone says or does something that goes against what they are trying to prove in a case. It can be something they said before the case or during it. This can be used as evidence against them. It's like when you say you didn't eat the last cookie, but then you have cookie crumbs on your face. That's a quasi-admission that you ate the cookie. In simpler terms, it's when someone accidentally admits something that hurts their case.A more thorough explanation:
Definition: Quasi-admission is a statement or assertion made by a party to a case that is offered against that party. It is an acknowledgment that facts are true and creates an inconsistency with and discredits, to a greater or lesser degree, a present claim or other evidence of the person creating the inconsistency.
Example: If a person is accused of stealing a car and they say, "I was at home all night," but then later say, "I went out to get some food," they have made a quasi-admission. The second statement contradicts the first and discredits their claim of being at home all night.
This example illustrates how a quasi-admission can be used to discredit a person's claim and show that they are not telling the truth.
