Summary/Abstract: The article examines the main differences between witness testimony in arbitration and in civil litigation. The main distinctions between testimony in public and private litigation stem from the fact that arbitration proceedings are much more informal and therefore lack many of the limitations associated with the admissibility of witness statements. The lack of formality in arbitration proceedings predetermines the procedure for gathering witness statements, which, unlike that in civil litigation, can be admitted in the form of written testimony.
