direct evidence
testimony of a witness concerning the fact to be proved (as opposed to circumstantial evidence)


Wikipedia English The Free EncyclopediaDownload this dictionary
Direct evidence
Direct evidence is testimony or other proof which expressly or straight-forwardly proves the existence of a fact. It is different from circumstantial evidence, which is evidence that, without going directly to prove the existence of a fact, gives rise to a logical inference that such fact does exist.
