Craig v Oakwood Hospital
Michigan Supreme Court No. 121405
Court of Appeals No. 206951
September 6, 2005
Argument:
A Trial Court's Gate-Keeping role under MRE 702 requires it, in advance of trial, to examine scientific, technical, and other specialized knowledge to evaluate whether expert testimony will assist the trier of fact to understand the evidence or determine a fact in issue by considering the standards of the scientific community and the established facts of the case.
