This is a completely new content mentioned in the Amending Law on Judicial Expertise 2020 approved by the 14th National Assembly of Vietnam at its 9th session on June 10, 2020.
The Amending Law on Judicial Expertise 2020 was officially approved by the 14th National Assembly of Vietnam at its 9th session on June 10, 2020. This Law stipulates that the Bureau of Criminal Justice Technology and Expertise controlled by the Supreme People’s Procuracy shall conduct the judicial expertise on electronic audiovisual data.
According to Vietnam’s current regulations, expertising conclusions shall only become proof in court when such conclusions arise from judicial expertise activities. For expert conclusions arising not from judicial expertise, even though they are all made by the same expertise agency, they will not become evidence before the court. Is there not enough legal discrimination on this issue?!
According to Vietnam’s regulations, public judicial expertise institutions may be established by competent state agencies in the areas of forensic medicine, psychiatric forensic medicine and criminological techniques. Public judicial expertise institutions have their own seals and accounts in accordance with law.
Judicial experts are those who satisfy the criteria specified by law and are appointed by competent state agencies to perform judicial expertise. So, how are these criteria according to current Vietnam’s regulations?
The Law on Judicial Expertise 2012 of Vietnam was promulgated on June 20, 2012, consisting of 8 chapters and 46 articles. This Law regulates many issues in judicial activities, typically contents on rights and obligations of judicial expertise performers when performing judicial expertise.
According to Vietnam’s regulations, a Vietnamese citizen who permanently resides in Vietnam and fully satisfies criteria prescribed by law may be considered and appointed as a judicial expert. During the operation, for some reason these people may be dismissed. So how does the law regulate these cases of dismissal?
