Indicia in United States
Indicia Definition
(Lat.) Signs; marks. Conjectures which result from circumstances not absolutely certain and necessary, but merely probable, and which may turn out not to be true, though they have the appearance of truth. The term is much used in the civil law in a sense nearly or entirely synonymous with “circumstantial evidence.” It denotes facts which give rise to inferences, rather than the inferences themselves. However numerous indicia may be, they only show that a thing may be, not that it has been. An indicium can have effect only when a connection is essentially necessary with the principal. Effects are known by their causes, but only when the effects can arise only from the causes to which they are attributed. When several causes may have produced one and the same effect, it is therefore unreasonable to attribute it to any particular one of such causes. The term is much used in common law of signs or marks of identity. For example, in replevin it is said that property must have indicia, or ear marks, by which to distinguish it from other property of the same kind. So it is much used in the phrase “indicia of crime,” in a sense similar to that of the civil law.
