Inference
Term · Law · MLC-T-LAW-002622
A conclusion reached on the basis of evidence and reasoning, rather than direct observation or explicit statement. In law, a jury or judge may draw inferences from facts presented in court. This differs from a presumption, which is a conclusion that must be drawn unless rebutted by evidence.
