章节摘录
书摘 书摘 Morgan: The Morgan approach to presumptions maybe described as follows: When fact A is established the jury is instructed that it must find fact B unless and until the opponent per- suades the jury that the nonexistence of fact B is more probably true than not true. Pursuant to the Morgan approach, application of a pre-sumption shifts both the burden of production and theburden of persuasion to the opposing party. Asserting that Rule 301 "bursting bubble" accords tooslight an effect to presumptions, proponents of the Mor-gan theory stress that presumptions rest upon the sameconsiderations of policy, fairness, and probability whichgovern the allocation of the elements of the case original-ly and are an aspect of allocation, working within thelarger framework of the elements of the case. To holdthat the sole effect of a presumption is that of requiringthe opposite party to produce evidence sufficient to sup-port a finding of the nonexistence of the presumed fact,wholly without regard to whether the evidence is in factbelieved, is argued by those supporting the Morgan ap-proach to ignore the wisdom which underlies presump-tions. In apparent response to such contentions, Rule301 provides that the Morgan shifting burden of persua-sion approach may be adopted with respect to a particu-hr presumption by Act of Congress or these rules. Notice that pursuant to Rule 301 when a presumptionoperates against a party who already has the burden ofproduction as to the presumed fact, the presumption hasno effect. Similarly taking the Morgan approach, apresumption operating against a party already possessingthe burden of persuasion as to the presumed fact has noeffect.* *Illustration: Assume that a plaintiff brings an action for damagesuffered when his car was struck by a taxi at 3:00 a.m. In thejurisdiction where the action is brought, there is a statute in forcewhich states that in actions against a taxi company for damages topersons or property, if it is established that the taxi involved in anaccident is owned by the company, it shall be presumed that the driverwas acting at the time of the accident as an agent of the taxi company.For purposes of this illustration, assume further it is uncontested thatthe particular taxi is owned by the defendant company.
