/feɪljər ʌv pruf/ – Phrase
Definition: không có chứng cứ.
A more thorough explanation: “Failure of proof” refers to a situation in a legal proceeding where a party has not provided sufficient evidence to meet their burden of proof. This means that the party has not presented enough evidence to establish the facts or elements required to support their claim or defense. As a result, the party may not succeed in their legal argument or may lose the case due to the lack of sufficient proof.
Example: In a criminal trial, the prosecution must establish guilt beyond a reasonable doubt, and any failure of proof may result in the defendant being acquitted.
