Barry Boise, a partner with Troutman Pepper, was quoted in the January 2, 2023 Law360 article, " Product Liability Legislation & Regulation to Watch in 2023."
The change was approved by the Judicial Conference Committee on Rules of Practice and Procedure in June and will clarify that plaintiffs have the burden of proving by a preponderance of the evidence that an expert has a reliable methodology and that their opinion is derived from that methodology, Barry Boise of Troutman Pepper said.
"I think that is going to be important because there was a study done which showed that most courts and majorities were not applying the right standard," Boise said.
