Dispositive Fact

    0.01 sec.

Information or evidence that unqualifiedly brings a conclusion to a legal controversy.

Dispositive facts clearly settle an issue. The fact that the defendant in a personal injury case ran a red light and hit the plaintiff with his or her car settles the question of the defendant's

Negligence and is, therefore, a dispositive fact.
