<h1>Legal presumptions enable courts to decide cases with insufficient evidence through rebuttable and conclusive presumptions</h1> Presumption means accepting something as true without examination or proof. There are two types: presumptions of fact and presumptions of law. Presumptions of fact are logical inferences drawn from one fact to establish other facts and are rebuttable by contrary evidence. Presumptions of law may be irrebuttable (conclusive) or rebuttable. The Evidence Act provides three forms: 'may presume' (discretionary rebuttable presumptions), 'shall presume' (compulsory rebuttable presumptions), and conclusive presumptions (irrebuttable). Courts have discretion with 'may presume' clauses but must apply 'shall presume' presumptions. Presumptions enable courts to decide issues despite insufficient evidence.
