| 单词 | Browne v Dunn, rule in |
| 释义 | Browne訴Dunn之原則 The rule that during cross-examination, counsel is obliged when cross-examining to provide the witness with the opportunity to deny the evidence of counsel’s own witnesses. A failure to cross-examine a witness on the evidence of that witness may be taken as an admission of the truth of that evidence: Browne v Dunn (1894) 6 R 67; R v Hart (1932) 23 Cr App R 202 (CA). If it has been made plain in some other manner that the testimony of a witness who it is suggested should be disbelieved is challenged, it is not necessary to put questions in cross-examination: R v Ho Shu Chung [1990] 1 HKLR 180 (CA); R v Wong Hing Tong (CACC 45/93, unreported) See also Cross-examination. 在此原則下，大律師在盤問期間須給予對方證人否認大律師己方證人證據的機會。如未能就該證人的證據盤問證人，則可視為承認該證供的真實性：Browne v Bunn (1894) 6 R 67；R v Hart (1932) 23 Cr App R 202 （英國上訴法庭）。假如以其他方式清晰顯示應被懷疑的證人的證供受到質疑，則無需在盤問中提問：R v Ho Shu Chung [1990] 1 HKLR 180（上訴法庭）；R v Wong Hing Tong （刑事上訴1993年第45號，未經彙報）。另見 Cross-examination。 |
