@ credible evidence

Evidence to be worthy of credit must not only proceed from a credible source but must, in addition, be "credible" in itself, by which is meant that it shall be so natural, reasonable and probable in view of the transaction which it describes or to which it relates as to make it easy to believe it, and credible testimony is that which meets the test of plausibility. Indiana Metal Products v. N.L.R.B., C.A.Ind., 442 F.2d 46, 52

@ credible person

One who is trustworthy and entitled to be believed. In law and legal proceedings, one who is entitled to have his oath or affidavit accepted as reliable, not only on account of his good reputation for veracity, but also on account of his intelligence, knowledge of the circumstances, and disinterested relation to the matter in question. Also one who is competent to testify. Burleson v. State, 131 Tex.Cr.R. 576, 100 S.W.2d 1019, 1020
