Then the standard of proof is the balance of probabilities, more likely than not.

Acceptable evidence is whatever evidence the court deems to satisfy the relevant standard of proof.

Thank you for your response.

And that depends on whether civil or criminal I would imagine.  Civil court - small claims in this instance.

Hi

I have a screenshot of a tracking number for a document which was sent 6 years ago.

The screenshot is from my Royal Mail Click and Drop account.

The tracking number obviously isn't found as so much water has passed under the bridge.

I also have other screenshots which don't show tracking numbers either but do show the date of postage and, in one example, the other side has sent me evidence of one letter received just after that date which also shows the tracking number.  What they aren't admitting to is that they received other more crucial documentation.

Any insight would be greatly appreciated.
