Abstract

Confession in civil matters is a matter of decisiveness, and this is what has excused the legislature from accepting denial after confession. However, the legislature has introduced conditions under which, according to the text of Article 1277 of the Civil Code, denial after confession is heard. Examining this article, we find that what is considered as denial after confession in the text of this article, in fact, has nothing to do with denial after confession, but are merely circumstances in which either the confession was not substantially made or in the case of apparent occurrence, can not be imagined legal effectiveness for it. Factors such as proving the corruption of a confession or relying on mistakes and the like. As a result, it should be said that contrary to the cases that have been accepted as denial after confession in the text of the law and similar researches and have been accepted by the law, in fact denial will never occur after confession.
