demurrer to evidence

demurrer to evidence. A party’s objection or exception that the evidence is legally insufficient to make a case. • Its effect, upon joinder in the demurrer by the opposite party, is that the jury is discharged and the demurrer is entered on record and decided by the court. A demurrer to evidence admits the truth of all the evidence and the legal deductions from that evidence. [Cases: Criminal Law 752; Trial 150. C.J.S. Trial §§ 384–386, 391.]
