Did you know that before a medical malpractice trial can actually start the judge would want the two lawyers to stipulate to a set of facts that are already agreed to? In every single case, a certain set of facts are clearly agreed to. For instance, in a medical malpractice case, the two sides will agree when the incident in question took place, where it took place, and so on. Hence, there are certain facts that are clearly agreed to and stipulated.

Usually in a medical malpractice trial, witnesses are presented in a certain order. However, witnesses can be taken out of order as well, and for doing that, permission has to be issued from the court.
