"...On documentary evidence, the Law of Evidence demands production of the best evidence, which is the original document or record. If the original is proven to have been lost, destroyed or is unduly burdensome to obtain, courts allow parties to adduce secondary evidence, which is a copy of the original document or record. Electronic transactions, particularly through computer technologies, enable businesses and consumers to use computers to create, transmit, and store information in electronic form.
