Probative facts are pieces of evidence or information that have relevance and significance in proving or disproving a fact in a legal proceeding. These facts contribute to the establishment of key elements or issues in the case and are used by parties to support their arguments or claims. Probative facts are crucial in helping courts make informed decisions and reach accurate conclusions based on the evidence presented. The admissibility and weight of probative facts are determined by the rules of evidence and legal standards applicable to the particular jurisdiction and type of case.
