1. A presumption, other than a presumption
against the accused in a criminal action, imposes on the party against whom it
is directed the burden of proving that the nonexistence of the presumed fact is
more probable than its existence.
2. As applied to presumptions, direct
evidence means evidence which tends to establish the existence or nonexistence
of the presumed fact independently of the basic facts.
