However, when an issue is raised whether the asserted writing ever existed; or whether another writing, recording, or photograph produced at the hearing is the original; or whether other evidence of contents correctly reflects the contents, the issue is for the judge as trier of fact to determine as in the case of other issues of fact.","path":["Title 29—Labor","Subtitle A—Office of the Secretary of Labor","PART 18—RULES OF PRACTICE AND PROCEDURE FOR ADMINISTRATIVE HEARINGS BEFORE THE OFFICE OF ADMINISTRATIVE LAW JUDGES","Subpart B—Rules of Evidence"],"source_url":"https://www.ecfr.gov/api/versioner/v1/full/2026-08-25/title-29.xml","current_through":"2026-08-25","vintage":"","retrieved_at":"2026-08-27T02:25:20Z","sha256":"2699e638d32cf1d55544a5ece71a863460c584b0aba04851dfd70db55f3b0a73","source_id":"us-cfr","stale":true,"prev":"us/29-cfr-18.1007","next":"us/29-cfr-18.1101"},"notice":"GroundRules: Original legal text.
