Definition of semiplena probatio
Definition: Semiplena probatio is a Latin term that means "half-proof." It refers to evidence that is not conclusive but is strong enough to create a reasonable belief that something is true. For example, in a case of filiation, a mother may provide evidence of opportunity for connection and acts of familiarity on the part of the alleged father towards her child. This evidence may not be enough to prove paternity beyond a doubt, but it can create a reasonable belief that the alleged father is indeed the biological father. Semiplena probatio is a type of evidence that is not conclusive but can still be persuasive in a legal case.

Simple Definition
Semiplena probatio: Half-proof. In the past, when someone wanted to prove that someone else was the father of their child, they had to show a semiplena probatio. This means they had to provide evidence that made it very likely that the person was the father, like showing that they spent time together and were friendly. If they could show this, they could then ask the person to take an oath to prove that they were the father.
