摘要

A survey of members of the legal profession Involved in cases requiring the use of scientific experts reveals strong support for court-appointed experts — but little evidence of direct experience to back up this feeling. In English law, the general rule covering the appearance of witnesses in court cases is that their testimony must be restricted to facts, and that tribunals should not be subject to their personal views and opinions. There are, however, many occasions on which the tribunal lacks the ability to form an opinion on its own on the evidence presented to it. Judges are not polymaths, and where the issue under consideration is one of science (or art), assistance from an expert may be required. As a result, English courts have recognized the need for special witnesses who are able to provide evidence on both fact and opinion.
