Learning about Presumptions

a. Legitimacy
Every person is presumed to be legitimate.

d. Death from Absence
If a person is inexplicably absent for a continuous period of seven years and he has not been heard from, he is presumed dead.

f. Chastity.
Every person is presumed chaste and virtuous.

The lesson? The law is weird.
