- Authors
Kocańda, Kamila; Rokita, Wojciech
- Abstract
In the Polish civil litigation procedure, the cases concerning medical errors always require an expert opinion for the court to assess doctor's due diligence. The court does not have specialist knowledge, thus their decision, if not taken based on a specialist opinion, is procedurally incorrect. Expert's opinion can be effectively questioned by each of the parties of the dispute, which may lead to either complementary or further opinion. Every specialist opinion of an expert in civil law disputes concerning medical errors has to meet the requirements of integrity, logic and be comprehensive enough.
