- Title
Daubert and Qualification of the Appraisal Expert Witness.
- Authors
Hoyt, Richard W.; Aalberts, Robert J.; Poon, Percy
- Abstract
Since Daubert v. Merrell Dow Pharmaceuticals was decided in 1993, there have been two primary issues in applying Daubert to expert testimony in valuation situations: qualification of an expert witness and the use of methodology. This article examines cases in which Daubert has been applied to the question of witness qualifications in real estate valuation. The cases reviewed indicate that courts have not strictly complied with the Daubert tests when considering the acceptance of a real estate expert witness. The courts have different interpretations in the application of Daubert for expert witness qualification, and there is some latitude for those permitted to testify on real estate value.
