Abstract

Studying evidence in the judiciary is one of the most important parts in decision-making and the right of litigants. But the question is what is the ruling in case of confrontation of official documents with other evidences in Iranian and French law? This issue is related to the opposition of official documents with other evidences such as ordinary documents, UAE, testimony of witnesses, oaths and expert theory. Unfortunately, the civil law or special regulations do not examine the opposition of official documents with other evidences Has contrasted official documents with the testimony of witnesses.
This is also the case in French law, and although the French legislature has referred to the strength and validity of the official document, it has not made any reference to examining the conflict of documents with other arguments. Therefore, the realm of opposition of official documents with other evidences should be explicitly and implicitly studied in civil regulations as well as in jurisprudence, although this issue has also been mentioned in jurisprudential texts.
