Roberti v. Andy's Termite & Pest Control, Inc.
(California Supreme Court)
Admissibility of expert testimony
The NAM joined with other associations and 10 companies in an amicus letter 1/26/04 urging the California Supreme Court to review a lower court ruling that allowed an expert to testify that animal studies of pesticides and autism can be extrapolated to humans. We urge a rule similar to the landmark Daubert case that prohibits such speculative or unreliable testimony, as most states do. The Court refused to hear the appeal.
