QUE SIGNIFIE PRETEXT EN ANGLAIS
Prétexte
Un prétexte est une excuse pour faire quelque chose ou dire quelque chose qui n'est pas précis. Les prétextes peuvent être basés sur une demi-vérité ou développés dans le contexte d'une fabrication trompeuse. Des prétextes ont été utilisés pour dissimuler le véritable but ou la raison d'être des actions et des mots. Dans la loi américaine, un prétexte décrit habituellement des fausses raisons qui cachent les véritables intentions ou motivations pour une action en justice. Si une partie peut établir une preuve prima facie pour la preuve proposée, la partie adverse doit prouver que ces raisons étaient "prétextuelles" ou fausses. Cela peut être accompli en démontrant directement que les motivations derrière la présentation de la preuve sont fausses, ou indirectement par la preuve que les motivations ne sont pas «crédibles». Dans Griffith v. Schnitzer, un cas de discrimination en matière d'emploi, un jugement du jury a été renversé par une Cour d'appel parce que les éléments de preuve n'étaient pas suffisants pour que les motifs du défendeur soient «prétextuels». C'est-à-dire que la preuve du défendeur était incontestée, ou le demandeur était «des évaluations et opinions subjectives non pertinentes».
