res gestae


(rayz jest-tie) Latin words for "things done".
It is a noun. It  means (in law) the events, circumstances, remarks, etc. which relate to a particular case, especially as constituting admissible evidence in a court of law.

It means all circumstances surrounding and connected with a happening. Thus, the res gestae of a crime includes the immediate area and all occurrences and statements immediately after the crime. Statements made within the res gestae of a crime or accident may be admitted in court even though they are "hearsay" on the basis that spontaneous statements in those circumstances are reliable.

The rule as to admissibility of evidence as res-gestae, is embodied and illustrated in articles (19), (20), (21), (22) and (27). In other words occasion, cause, effect, motive, preparation, conduct, explanatory or introductory facts, etc, are the various modes in which facts form parts of Res-gestae.
