“The Best Evidence Rule” refers to the best evidence available such as an original document over a copy

True
False

The correct answer is: True

"The Best Evidence Rule" indeed refers to the legal principle that an original copy of a document is superior evidence than any duplicate or copy. This rule aims to maintain the integrity of the document by preventing alterations, changes, or modifications that could occur in the process of making a copy. Most often, it is applied in situations where the authenticity of the document is in question. So when it comes to evidence, an original document is seen as more trustworthy and authoritative compared to its copies, which affirms the correctness of option A: True.
