force:(1)the original documentary evidence or the Xerox copies, photographs, copies or extracts thereof which are verified to be consistent with the original documentary evidence;(2)the original

Adjudication Board may confirm its evidential force.Where in respect of the evidence one interested party has furnished, the other party has objection thereto and presents evidence to rebut it, and the opposite party accepts the rebutting evidence, the evidential force of the rebutting evidence may be confirmed.Rule 51 Where both parties furnish evidence to the contrary in respect of the same fact, neither has sufficient ground for the denial of the evidence of the other party, the Trademark Review and Adjudication Board shall evaluate, considering the circumstances of a case, whether or not the evidence furnished by one party is obviously more valid in evidential force than that by the other party, and confirm the evidence carrying more valid evidential force.Where it is impossible to evaluate the evidential force of the evidence, and, as a result, it is difficult to ascertain the facts in dispute, the Trademark Review and Adjudication Board shall make determination according to the doctrine for distribution of burden of proof.Rule 52 The Trademark Review and Adjudication Board shall confirm the facts and evidence which are unfavorable to an interested party, but have been

pieces of evidence as to the same fact according to the following principles:(1)Documents and instruments prepared, ex officio, by a State agency and any other competent department prevail over other
