What is the difference between an expert witness and a fact witness?

The fundamental difference between an expert witness and a fact witness is generally as follows: A fact witness usually provides testimony regarding what has happened in a given situation – he testifies as someone who has seen the situation, been involved in the situation in some way, and/or has some personal knowledge of the situation. An expert witness generally provides testimony as to how or why the situation occurred – he has analyzed the situation and gives his opinion based on his knowledge, training and experience as to the causes of the situation. In giving his opinion, an expert witness may testify using facts related to causation to support his opinion.

Register IV was produced by BH from the period 23rd April 1987 to 29th May 1987. This was for a period prior to the relevant period in this suit and in that inquiry. The same witness had identified the register produced for the earlier period as the register maintained by the operation sister in the OT in the normal course of the conduct of the hospital.

It assumes the existence of police and devolves various powers and responsibilities on to it.

The overall administration of police in the entire state is done by Director General of Police.

It is also contended by the counsel for the applicant that Courts are compelling advocates to identify the surety at the time of verification of bail papers and surety papers. If this is so, then this practice must be depricat...
