Standard of Proof

Legal terms A-Z

The standard of proof is a legal term meaning what level of proof is needed before something can be proven. In criminal trials the standard of proof is “beyond all reasonable doubt” - this means the prosecution have to prove the defendant is guilty so that the judge or jury are sure that the defendant did it.
