What is meant by leading the evidence?
I filed an application in divorce suit (I am respondent and wife with a daughter)
I also filed xeroxex of docs, bank statements, TDS entries, rent inwards in that (of my husband) + index of all those xeroxes.
I also filed 'Notice to admit fact and notice to produce all related details...etc
Husband gave his say saying that there is locus standi as I shud have asked this before an interim maint order was passed.
Judge asked me to lead evidence or do argument on next date?
My question:-
What is meant by leading the evidence?
Aren't the above xeroxes etc filed by me called evidence/proofs?
I can see that only index page of it given a Exhibit's serial number as Exh. 34 (But there are 8 pages of bank statement which shows TDS deduction and rent inward payments on monthly basis, remitance from/to his demat acount etc, 3 page rent agreement which I took a copy from housing soc. chairman where my husband had bought flat, chairman called the tenant there and asked agreement copy for soc.\s records and he gave me a copy!!).
What I have to do next on the next hearing?
