My friend needed capital turnover because he was in a hurry, so he borrowed a sum of money from Xiao Li through WeChat, and all the conversations between the two were conducted on WeChat, because the relationship between friends was there, and there was no IOU.
When it came to the repayment date in his friend's mouth, Xiao Li planned to ask his friend when he would repay the money, but it didn't matter if he asked, he found that his friend had lost contact, and there was no response to either voice or **.
In a desperate situation, Xiao Li came to a friend's house, but found that his friend had already moved, even if he sued the court, Xiao Li did not have any evidence except for the chat records, and he was confused for a while.
So, if there is only WeChat chat history, can it be used as evidence to sue the court to get back the arrears?
According to the relevant provisions of China's Civil Procedure Law:
Article 66Evidence includes:
1) Statements of the parties;
2) Documentary evidence;3) Physical evidence;
4) Audio-visual materials;
e) Electronic data;
6) Witness testimony;
7) Appraisal opinions;
8) Inquest records.
Evidence must be verified to be true before it can be used as a basis for determining facts.
Through the provisions of the law, it is not difficult for us to find that WeChat chat records belong to electronic data and can be used as evidence, but the premise is that the chat records are authentic and do not contain any forgery or falsification.
Therefore, when preserving online chat records, it must be noted that the online chat records must have the objective authenticity, legitimacy, and relevance of litigation evidence. In addition, audio-visual materials are characterized as indirect evidence in China's evidence classification, and they cannot be evidence that alone or directly proves the facts of the case.
If you want to make the transfer record more authoritative, you can also obtain the relevant documents by following the steps below:
Step 1: Open your WeChat wallet, click on Bills - click on FAQ in the upper right corner
Step 2: Click on the bill, select the time to use as proof and select the time
Step 3: Enter an active email address so that you can receive a stamped transaction record.
Of course, the safest way is to sign IOUs and other documents with relevant personnel in person, and don't put yourself in a disadvantageous position because of intimate relationships and other reasons, after all, knowing people and knowing faces do not know their hearts, although the heart of harm is not possible, but the heart of defense is also indispensable.
If you have a problem, find Wuzhou, so that you can turn big things into small things and small things into small things.
