Cara Passaro prevails on Daubert Motion in Design Defect Case

In an engineering design defect case, the Court granted Ms. Passaro’s Motion to Exclude the Plaintiff’s engineering expert in all respects, finding that the proffered opinions would offer no assistance to the jury’s understanding of the consequences of any departure from the applicable standard of care. The Court further found that the proffered testimony would not satisfy the Daubert standard where it was based on nothing other than rank conjecture because the expert did not perform any calculations himself, never designed a similar machine, and did not test or personally observe any of the component parts.
