Contracting Forensic DNA Experts by the Defense in Hungarian Criminal Procedure

Absztrakt

This paper examines the current legal environment and focuses on this question. The study also gives a brief overview of the circumstances when DNA analysis plays an essential role in criminal cases. Finally, the article will show whether the defense can employ its own forensic DNA expert in criminal cases.
