Marine Torts and Casualties’s Docs Cases of Interest MLA: Marine Torts & Casualties Committee: New EDLA Case Describes Permissible Maritime Expert Opinions

I’ve often struggled to explain to my experts on what they can opine, how they must couch their opinions in facts and weave-in the basis for their expertise, and how their opinions must be helpful to the jury — not legal conclusions — to be admissible. Judge Africk well explains these rules in this maritime injury case.

I’ll be very happy if you wait until tomorrow (after the weekend) to read this. 🙂

Thanks,
Fred Goldsmith, Chair
