Witness protection - 1998 - Estates Gazette (9849) 5 December 1998, 152(1) .

The Court of Appeal has ruled that an expert witness is immune from suit if they have prepared a report, which is subsequently not used. This could be because the trial is cancelled or the expert is not called as a witness.
