DIV. 2 PRINCIPLES OF EVIDENCE
CH. 1 GENERAL PRINCIPLES
There are four kinds of evidence:
1. The knowledge of the court, that is, knowledge of which judicial notice is taken;
2. The testimony of witnesses;
3. Writings;
4. Other material objects presented to the senses.
SOURCE: CCP § 1827, as modified.
COMMENT: The modification here is an expansion upon the first type of evidence, i.e., the knowledge of the court. § 201 of Division 1 describes the means by which judicial notice is taken. See Article 10 of Division 1 for a definition of “writings.” See Article 6 of Division 1 for Rules pertaining to testimony of witnesses.
