In administrative hearings, the burden of proof is generally on the party who brings the action. Under some regulatory schemes, the burden of production may shift, such that one party has the burden of going forward with a prima facie case and the opposite party must respond by presenting evidence to rebut the prima facie case. This class will address burden shifts, as well as comparing and contrasting rebuttable and conclusive presumptions. The process of deducing “facts that may logically and reasonably be drawn from another fact or group of facts found,” known as drawing an inference, will be examined, also.
