who is the only person in a courtroom that is allowed to express an opinion?
a the judge
b the expert witness
c the jurors
d the prosecutor
In a courtroom, an expert witness is permitted to express an opinion (e.g., on technical, scientific, or specialized matters relevant to the case) as part of their testimony to assist the court. Judges make rulings based on law and evidence, jurors deliberate and reach a verdict (not typically "expressing opinion" in the same way), and prosecutors present evidence and arguments. So the expert witness is the one allowed to express an opinion.
