what is the difference between objective and subjective arguments in a court case?

Objective arguments are fact-based. There were fingerprints on the gun that matched the accused's, therefore he must have shot the gun. Subjective arguments are based on opinion and feelings. The accused is known to be of poor character and would therefore clearly be capable of committing such a crime.

It's the difference between feeling or opinions and factual evidence. Here's an example: Witnesses say the accused couldn't have committed the crime because he's a good husband and father. This is "subjective" evidence. The police say, however, that the fingerprints of the accused were found on the gun that killed the victim. This is "objective" evidence.
