Those Who Practice in Federal Court Beware; Come December All of the Expert Testimony Rules Will Probably Be Amended.

For those of you who practice in Federal Court , you constantly have to make it a point to be intimately familiar with the Federal Rules of Evidence, Civil Procedure , Local Rules , etc. Well don't blink now. Come December there will be some changes regarding expert testimony in Federal Courts that you definitely want to learn and become familiar with.
The text of the "restyled rules" can be found at :www.uscourts.gov/RulesAndPolicies/FederalRulemaking/PendingRules.aspx. You owe it to yourself and your clients to understand the changes.
Don't sweat it though, nothing truly substantive in the amendments as I understand. But , you don't ever want to be put in a compromised position by not knowing them.
Good luck!
