/dɪˈrɛkt keɪs/ – Phrase
Definition: xch case of direct evidence.
A more thorough explanation: In legal terms, a “direct case” refers to the presentation of evidence and witnesses by a party in a trial to support their claims or defenses. It is the initial phase of presenting evidence in a trial before the opposing party has the opportunity to cross-examine the witnesses. The direct case is used to establish the party’s version of the facts and to prove the elements of their case.
Example: In the direct case, the plaintiff presented evidence directly linking the defendant to the crime.
