| Abstract | This paper considers the nature of expert evidence before turning to the criticisms made and reforms suggested by the Chief Justice’s Working Party on Civil Justice Reform (“CJR”) insofar as they concern its use in the Hong Kong civil courts. The paper then continues with an examination of the changes that will be brought about to the nature and role of expert evidence by virtue of the implementation of the CJR on 2 April 2009. It concludes with a summary and critique of those changes. |
