The principle of production of evidence by the parties is applied in Turkish Civil Procedure Law. In proceedings where this principle applies, the case ma- terial (facts and evidence) should, as a rule, be shown by the parties. At the re- quest of the parties, according to this principle, the evidence submitted by the parties can be removed from the proceedings. There is a regulation on this issue in the Turkish Civil Procedure Code (Art. 196). Under the first paragraph of Ar- ticle 196 of the Turkish Civil Procedure Code, unless the other party gives per- mission, it is not possible to remove the evidence from the proceeding. As can be seen, it is regulated with this article that it is possible to remove the evidence from the case and that this can be done only with the permission of the other party. The scope of this article is wide and also applied to witness evidence. In this study, the subject of removing the witness evidence from the proceeding is examined. In this context, Article 196 of the Turkish Civil Procedure Code has been evaluated in terms of the characteristics of the provisions regarding the submission of witness evidence.
