Trial Court—Its finding

An appellate Court would not ordinarily interfere with the finding of
fact of a court of first instigate but this principle is not without exception.
Where the (1) facts are such that the appellate Court is in a similar position
with the original Court to sift and weigh the evidence, when (2) the oral
testimony has not received due consideration in the original court; and where
(3) the disbelief of witness by the trial court is based on an alleged
contradiction which is in reality a mere incapacity of the witness to remember
or explain a certain thing—then in all such cases the appellate tribunal would
be unfettered to examine the evidence afresh and arrive at an independent
decision.
