How many witnesses are required for the proof of any fact?

Section 134 requires no particular number of witnesses to prove a fact. The court assesses the quality and reliability of the evidence, not a universal requirement of one or two witnesses. Specific substantive-law requirements, such as proof of an attested instrument where applicable, must still be satisfied; section 134 does not abolish those distinct requirements.

Current law: BSA section 139 retains the no-particular-number rule, with section 170 saving qualifying pending matters under the old Act.
