English term or phrase: to call evidence
In this case the court made findings that in the child's best interests, no direct or indirect contact should take place with Mr Smith.
Mr Smith consented to the making of a residence order and Supervision Order but did not agree to provision for contact; Mr Smith chose not to call evidence, matter dealt with on submissions.

Not sure what does the term "not to call evidence" means as such.

not to call evidence/nepredložiť dôkaz/svedectvo


Explanation:
call (n.) - the demand ...
evidence (n.) - every type of proof legally presented at trial (allowed by the judge)....
from The People's Law Dictionary

"not to call evidence" - or withold evidence

"to call to witness" - (za)volať za svedka
"to call for s.o." - ísť po koho,
"to call for s.t." - vyžiadať si
"to call s.o. in evidence" - zavolať koho za svedka

v tomto pripade to nie je "niekto" ale "niečo"

nie "to call evidence" ale "not to call evidence"
