Generally speaking, in civil law proceedings that involve with Family law Act and Defamation Act, what is the correct way for either party to introduce voice recording as well as its transcript as evidence?
I understand that generally speaking audio recording as evidence is a tricky one, but some cases such
JANSSEN & JANSSEN does allow recordings and its transcript to be admitted. As a self represented litigant, I wonder how to do it under below scenarios:
1. Applicant/Plaintiff makes a statement in Affidavit /Writ and wishes to use the recording to support the statement in the beginning of the process.
2. The Applicant/Plaintiff initially only makes a statement in Affidavit /Writ, but Respondent then denies this statement. So now the Applicant /Plaintiff wishes to bring in audio recording and its transcript as evidence.
3. The Respondent denies a statement in Applicant /Plaintiff's application/writ, and wishes to bring audio evidence in support of the denial.
