The IBA Rules provide for the use of both party- and tribunal-appointed experts. This chapter describes Article 5 of the IBA Rules. Article 5, supplemented by Article 8, dealing with oral testimony at the evidentiary hearing, provides a comprehensive framework for use and management of evidence from party-appointed experts. Although Article 5 is self-contained, it should be considered in conjunction with Article 6, which deals with tribunal-appointed experts. This chapter considers the required content of a report prepared by a party-appointed expert. It also deals with the question of whether a party may file expert evidence without permission of the tribunal as well as other issues that may arise in connection with party-appointed experts.
