CRAIG L. RUSSELL, APPELLANT, v. CALL/D, LLC, APPELLEE., 122 A.3d 860


Summary

HOLDINGS: [1]-In an apartment resident's action, alleging negligence that arose from his alleged contraction of Legionnaires' disease due to sewage issues, the building owner's motion in limine to exclude the testimony of the resident's designated causation expert was properly granted without considering his supplemental D.C. Super. Ct. R. Civ. P. 26(b)(4) statement because no reason for the delay was given, and it did not appear that the supplemental information was important; [2]-The expert's testimony regarding the source of the resident's illness was properly excluded because it was entirely speculative, he lacked the necessary training, experience, and knowledge, and he lacked supportive data; [3]-Without the causation evidence to create a genuine issue of material fact on the proximate cause issue, the owner's motion for summary judgment was properly granted.
