Legal Question in Business Law in Massachusetts
Email as evidence
Is email acceptable as evidence in a court of law?
If so, in what form?
I believe a printed version of email is not tamper-proof, so would it be admissable?
What about email which has been downloaded from a computer onto a 3.5 inch disk?

Re: Email as evidence
As in all evedence questions - it depends. In order to enhance admissibility see if you have the date the e-mail issued, to, from, etc.

Re: Email as evidence
You simply do not provide enough information.
1. nature of email;
2. nature of proceedings;
3. purpose of introduction as evidence?
