The Eastern Section of the Court of Appeals issued its opinion today in Harris v. Jain, No. E2008-01506-COA-R3-CV (Tenn. Ct. App. Aug. 31, 2009). This is an unfortunate case involving adolescent suicide. However, the opinion offers good insight into the general qualifications of experts (e.g., when the common-knowledge exception is inapplicable) in medical malpractice case.
Here's a link to the opinion:
