2018At the pretrial hearing, the Estate argued that “the - 468 - Nebraska Supreme Court A dvance Sheets 299 Nebraska R eports HEMSLEY v. LANGDON Cite as 299 Neb. 464 Court has . . . no information before it on what method- ologies [the doctors’ expert witnesses] used nor how they applied them nor how did they arrive at a logical conclusion.” The Estate further argued that the expert witnesses testified “about education, training, and experience,” but that under federal and state case law (Daubert/Schafersman),1 “[t]hey still must disclose the methodologies and . . . the reasoning that they used.”

2018The court stated that the Estate’s objection was overruled “for the same reason it was previously overruled prior to trial.” We find no error in the district court’s determination that the testimony provided by the witnesses would assist the jury in understanding and determining the facts at issue in - 480 - Nebraska Supreme Court A dvance Sheets 299 Nebraska R eports HEMSLEY v.
