Is a shareholder's designation of a supplemental expert witness valid?
California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from Cinotto v. Levine, 2d Civil No. B242191 (Cal. App. 2014):
Nor did the trial court abuse its discretion when it struck the shareholders' designation of a supplemental expert witness. It was not arbitrary or irrational for the trial court to conclude that appellants had already designated an expert witness to testify on the same subject, albeit using a different methodology. (Code Civ. Proc., 2034.280, subd. (a); Basham v. Babcock (1996) 44 Cal.App.4th 1717, 1723.)
