92 — เอกสิทธิ์ในการปฏิเสธเบิกความ

คำแปลภาษาไทย

If any party or person is required to give testimony or to produce evidence of any kind, and such testimony or evidence may disclose:
(1) official documents or matters relating to affairs of state which by their nature must be kept secret temporarily or permanently, where such party or person is the keeper thereof or has come to know them by reason of an official position, or in an official or other semi-official duty;
(2) documents or matters that are secret which one has been entrusted with or told by a client in one's capacity as a lawyer;
(3) an invention, design, or other work which is protected by law from disclosure;
such party or person is entitled to refuse to give testimony or to produce such evidence, unless permission to disclose has been obtained from the competent official or the person concerned.
When a party or person refuses to give testimony or to produce evidence as stated above, the court has the power to summon the competent official or the person concerned to appear before the court and to explain the matters the court requires, in order to decide whether the refusal is reasonable. If the court is of the opinion that the refusal has no tenable reason, the court has the power to order that such party or person may not invoke the benefit of this section, and to compel the giving of testimony or the production of such evidence.
