The article is a circuit-by-circuit guide to federal court decisions that are arguably inconsistent with the newly amended rule.  The article\u2019s goal is to help litigators and the courts correctly implement the laudable purposes of the amendment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They highlight instances in which courts in the 6th Circuit relied on outdated standards that placed too much responsibility on juries to assess expert testimony, whereas Rule 702 requires a more stringent preliminary assessment by the courts to ensure reliability and sufficiency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
