Where this section sits in the code
- 01 - Courts, Oregon Rules of Civil Procedure
- 4. Evidence and Witnesses
- Chapter 44 — Witnesses
A witness is presumed to speak the truth. This presumption, however, may be overcome by the manner in which the witness testifies, by the character of the testimony of the witness, or by evidence affecting the character or motives of the witness, or by contradictory evidence. Where the trial is by the jury, they are the exclusive judges of the credibility of the witness.
