State v. Erickson green
alaska · 1978
2 sentences

1988The court noted that any “effort to present any substantial number” of the experts available, not to mention the authors of "literally hundreds of scientific articles,” would be "prohibitively expensive and unduly time-consuming,” and that it was "questionable whether such an expanded hearing would reveal more reliable or higher quality information” than that produced by the exchange of briefs plus "additional research at the appellate level.” Id. at 6 .

1988The court added that, where the authors of scientific sources “have not been subjected to cross-examination, we will weigh their data and conclusions with this fact in mind.” Id. at 7 .
