👉 Defendant math, or mathematical defense, is a legal strategy where a defendant challenges the mathematical evidence presented in their case, often arguing that the calculations, models, or interpretations are flawed, misapplied, or misrepresented. This can include questioning the assumptions underlying statistical analyses, the accuracy of data used in predictive models, or the validity of mathematical formulas applied to the case. The defense might also dispute the relevance or reliability of mathematical evidence, suggesting that it does not support the defendant's claims or that it was obtained through improper means. By casting doubt on the mathematical aspects of the case, the defense aims to cast uncertainty over the prosecution's reliance on these findings and potentially weaken the overall argument against the defendant.
