Problem
Read the court decision in Hearst v. United States, 412 F.Supp. 889 (N.D. CA 1976) and the Cornell University Law School article. (i) Discuss the expert witness testimony presented by the defense. (ii) Discuss the basis of the court's decision to exclude the expert witness testimony of Dr. Margaret Singer; (iii) What was the basis of the court's decision; (iv) Do you think it would have made a difference in the outcome If her testimony had been admitted? (v) Would the court's decision to exclude the expert witness testimony have been any different if Daubert were in effect at that time? vi) Would Dr. Singer's testimony be admissible today under the Frye standard and why?
