For several decades, evidence theorists have puzzled over the following paradox, known as the problem. Probability theory appears to tell us that the of a conjunctive claim is the product resulting from multiplying the probabilities of its separate conjuncts. In a three element negligence case (breach of duty, causation, damages), a plaintiff who proves element to a 0.6 probability, will have proven her overall claim to a very low of 0.216. Either the plaintiff wins the verdict based on this low (if the jury focuses on elements) or the plaintiff loses despite having met the condition of proving element to the stated threshold. To solve this problem, evidence theorists have advanced such proposals as changing the rules of probability, barring theory entirely from analysis of adjudicative factfinding, abandoning the procedural principle that the defendant need not present a narrative of innocence or non-liability, or dispensing with the requirement that the overall claim must meet an established burden of proof. This article argues that the conjunction paradox in fact presents a theoretical problem of little if any consequence. Dropping the condition that proving element is a sufficient, as opposed to merely a necessary condition for proof of a claim, makes the conjunction problem disappear. Nothing in logic or theory requires this each element/sufficiency condition, and the legal decision rules reflected in most jury instructions do not mandate it. Once this each element/sufficiency condition is removed, all that is left of the conjunction problem is a probability gap, an intuitive but ill-founded impression that the mathematical underpinnings of the conjunction problem are unfair to claimants. This gap is considerably narrowed by recognizing the probabilistic dependence of most facts internal to a given claim, and by applying the correct multiplication rule for probabilistically dependent events. Finally, the article argues that solving the conjunction problem is an insufficient ground either to abandon theory as a useful analytical tool in the context of adjudicative factfinding, or reform decision rules for trial factfinders.
