My vote is B for most inquisitorial systems. Both judge and parties can challenge the expert's credibility, not just the judge, so D is too limited. Seen similar wording in some practice sets.
Option D
Pretty confident it's B. In inquisitorial systems, both the judge and parties usually get to challenge an expert's credibility, not just the judge. That's what I've seen in some official guides and sample questions. If I'm off, let me know!
I don’t think it’s B. D fits better because in inquisitorial systems the judge usually has most of the authority when it comes to challenging an expert’s analysis or methods, not the parties. The parties can comment but only the judge really digs into the technical side. I might be off if some countries allow more from the parties, but I’d pick D here.
Had something like this in a mock, in some exam reports, pretty sure it's B.
D , since in those jurisdictions the judge really drives the analysis and can directly question the expert about their methods. I don't think the parties usually have as much power here. Correct me if I'm off base.
