Select your answer for: A party failing to tender documentary evidence at an earlier phase may present it subsequently provided they_________________?
Show answer

Answer: B. Shows good cause for non production of evidence

Explanation

The correct option allows late documentary evidence if good cause is shown. Courts require justification for failing to submit documents during earlier phases. Option B properly balances procedural fairness with evidentiary flexibility. Civil procedure rules mandate timely disclosure of all documentary evidence. Showing good cause prevents unfair surprise and trial delays by litigants. Judicial discretion governs the acceptance of late evidentiary submissions.

Litigants must carefully organize their documents before initiating court proceedings. Trial efficiency depends on strict adherence to preliminary evidence deadlines. Attorneys file formal explanations when crucial documents are discovered late. Option A lacks clarity regarding the specific legal standard required. Option C mentions affidavits but misses the core requirement of good cause. Option D is wrong because the second option details the exact rule.
