Abstract

The analysis of the evidence, particularly the testimony of parties and witnesses is the essence of each process. Particularly important is the appropriate to assign the credibility of the presented theses. Human memory is sometimes unreliable and often on the basis of the analyzed court records raises the question: we remember what happened, or what we want to remember? Analysis of the mechanisms associated with the perception of the facts, their storage in memory and reconstruction and skillful interpretation of what was said “between the lines” can be very helpful.
