01

Subject

This summary addresses the requirement to question each expert individually in expertises involving multiple experts, in order to clarify deficiencies and ambiguities in the report and to verify whether all experts were informed and participated in the collective effort to achieve the expertise's purpose.

02

Summary

Expert evidence functions as a form of proof comparable to testimony; conducting discussions without addressing each expert separately leads to invalidation of that discussion. Consequently, the expert report becomes incomplete and unsuitable to serve as a basis for judgment. Note: This is a general educational summary and not a judicial text or legal advice.

03

Practical significance

The practical effect is that each expert must be examined independently to avoid nullification of the procedure and to preserve the report's validity as a basis in adjudication.
