Features: During the litigation process, to ascertain the facts of a case, judicial authorities act on their own authority, or upon the application of parties or other participants in the lawsuit, by appointing or commissioning experts with specialized knowledge to conduct examinations, identifications, and evaluations of specialized issues, which is known as judicial appraisal. From the perspective of evidence law, judicial appraisal conclusions, as a statutory type of evidence for determining facts, play a significant and even statutory role in litigation activities. Forensic medicine appraisal, injury appraisal, forensic pathology appraisal, and forensic biological evidence appraisal are some of the more common and essential components of judicial appraisal. Forensic medicine is a discipline that applies knowledge and skills from medical and biological fields to study and resolve issues related to human casualties in legal matters, serving as an important part of forensic science. The Criminal Procedure Law, Civil Procedure Law, and Administrative Procedure Law all stipulate that inspection records and appraisal conclusions are evidence for court proceedings. This book comprehensively and systematically explains, analyzes, and answers practical issues related to personal injury appraisals and various types of damage compensation. The content is up-to-date, and the layout is well-organized, demonstrating strong scientific rigor, technical expertise, richness, and legal practicality.
