Judicial fact-finding powers permit questions and production orders, subject to relevance, evidentiary safeguards, and witness protections.
Judicial power to discover or obtain proper proof permits the Judge to question witnesses or parties on relevant or irrelevant facts and order production of documents or things. Parties cannot object to such questioning or orders, and cross-examination on answers so obtained requires the Court's permission. Judgment must be based on legally relevant and duly proved facts, while witness protections, restrictions on improper questions, and primary-evidence requirements remain preserved.
