Scott v. Sears

Before WIDENER and SPROUSE, Circuit Judges, and HAYNSWORTH, Senior Circuit Judge HAYNSWORTH, Senior Circuit Judge: This is a slip and fall case in the diversity jurisdiction. The question before us is whether the district court abused its discretion when, over the defendant's objection, it admitted the testimony of an expert in ""ergonomics"", i.e., a ""human factors"" expert.
