Help! Anyone who knows anything about law/courts.

[Gold Coast Fox]

I have been stuck on an assignment question for the past 2 hours and can't find any information relating to the difference, so any help would be greatly appreciated!

 

Q: What is the difference between expert evidence for civil proceedings (joint expert) compared to criminal proceedings (respective parties witnesses).

Don’t quote me but I suspect the difference is based on the burden of proof. “Balance of probabilities” for civil and “beyond a reasonable doubt” for criminal.

@Gold Coast Fox is actually John Grisham working on his next novel.

Look up the Civil Procedure Rules (civil proceedings) and the rules regarding criminal proceedings in order to understand the fundamentals.

 

I did know, and probably still do at the back of my mind somewhere but I haven't looked at that for near on 10 years.
