29 CFR 18.301 - Presumptions in general.

  • Section Number: 18.301
  • Section Name: Presumptions in general. 
    Except as otherwise provided by Act of Congress, or by rules or 


regulations prescribed by the administrative agency pursuant to 


statutory authority, or pursuant to executive order, a presumption 


imposes on the party against whom it is directed the burden of going 


forward with evidence to rebut or meet the presumption, but does not 


shift to such party the burden of proof in the sense of the risk of 


nonpersuasion, which remains throughout the trial upon the party on whom 


it was originally cast.
