摘　　要：法官依职权传唤或依双方当事人的共同申请而由法官传唤的证人,以及依据法律赋予的特殊地位而具有明显中立性的证人可视为公共证人。公共证人概念是实体公正与程序公正价值平衡的产物,在司法实践中属于证人的特殊类型。公共证人证言属于证人证言之一种,应当经过法庭质证才能作为认定案件事实的根据,在证明力上并无优先性。公共证人具有区别于普通证人的特殊性,其质证过程应适用普遍质证原理和规则,同时还应遵循特定的公共证人质证规则。Public Witness is referred to a witness subpoenaed ex officio by a judge or subpoenaed by a judge upon the application of the party. Entitled to a special status by laws,the witness is evidently neutral. The concept of Public Witness is a product of the balance between the values of substantive justice and procedural justice,and it is one special type of witness in judicial practice. As one category of witness testimony,Public Witness Testimony should constitute as the basis of fact finding after examination in a trial,and therefore it does not have privileges in weight of evidence. Public Witness is special in the way that it is distinguishable from normal witness,whose testimony shall be examined in accordance with not only general principles and rules of examination but also the specific examination rules designed for public witness.
