Dalam perundangan sivil atau jenayah, pihak menuntut atau mendakwa adalah terbeban untuk membuktikan tuntutan/ dakwaan pada kadar beban pembuktian prosiding samada pada imbangan kebarangkalian atau melepasi keraguan munasabah. Manakala dalam kes sivil melibatkan alegasi frod terlibat, tuntutan melalui saman perlu dibuktikan melampaui keraguan munasabah.
