The Changes to the Rules of Civil Procedure and the Duty of an Expert The focus of this presentation will be on the amendments to the Rules of Civil Procedure that come into force on January 1, 2010 and relate to expert reports and expert evidence. It is important to understand the Rules of Civil Procedure which govern expert reports in the course of litigation, whether these reports are in court being used simply for negotiations in order to avoid court.

An example of the new Rules regarding expert reports:
DUTY OF EXPERT 4.1.01
(1) It is the duty of every expert engaged by or on behalf of a party to provide evidence in relation to a proceeding under these rules,
(a) to provide opinion evidence that is fair, objective and non-partisan
(b) to provide opinion evidence that is related only to matters that are within the expert's area of expertise; and
(c) to provide such additional assistance as the court may reasonably require to determine a matter in issue.
DUTY PREVAILS
(1) prevails over any obligation owed by the expert to the party by whom or on whose behalf he or she is engaged.
(2) The duty in sub-rule The presentation will also discuss the substantial changes to the discovery process that are contemplated under the new Rules. The Rules are attempting to streamline this process, make it proportional to the claim and shorten it however possible. The presentation will also touch on other amendments that may relate to trials in which appraisers are involved.
