Recent Superior Court Cases on the Admissibility of Expert Testimony (Webinar)

Our free CLE webinars are available to Jenkins members only. Join Jenkins today to enjoy this member benefit and more!

The Pennsylvania Superior Court's 2024 decision in Commonwealth v. Fitzpatrick (2024 PA Super 101), allowing expert medical testimony to support the prosecution's case, appears to conflict with another 2024 Superior Court decision, Commonwealth v. Delvalle (2469 EDA 2022), in which an expert witness was prohibited from testifying to bolster the credibility of the defendant.

This one-hour CLE will consider both cases in light of the issue of the admissibility of expert opinion evidence on so-called ultimate issues for decision by the ultimate fact finder.
