Habit and Business Routine Evidence
A
Evidence of a person’s habit (or evidence of the routine practice of an organization) is admissible as circumstantial evidence that the person (or organization) acted in accordance with the habit on the occasion at issue in the case. Habit describes a person’s regular response to a specific set of circumstances. Thus, there are 2 defining characteristics of habit: (1) frequency of conduct and (2) particularity of circumstances.
