Evidence/Expert Testimony
September 1, 2010
On August 30, 2010, the Seventh Circuit determined, for the first time, when a treating physician who provides an expert opinion as to causation is required to file a formal report under Rule 26(a)(2)(B) in Meyers v. Nat'l RR. Passenger Corp. (Amtrak), 619 F.3d 729 (7th Cir. 2010), Case No. 09-3323. To put the matter simply, "a treating physician who is offered to provide expert testimony as to the cause of the plaintiff's injury, but who did not make that determination in the course of providing treatment" must file such a report.
