520 |a Hauptbeschreibung The law of presumptions has never been popular among commentators. It has attracted few scholars, and most of the few who have ventured into the subject have come away as critics rather than admirers. Certainly, there are plausible reasons for this bad reputation.

Some presumptions also seem quite artificial, hard to defend as reliable indicators of the truth. Despite their poor reputatio.
