Case Name: Anushree Mehrotra, et al. v. William M. Campbell, et al.

Case No.: 2018AP1758

Officials: Neubauer, C.J., Reilly, P.J., and Gundrum, J.

Focus: Abuse of Discretion – Expert Witness

Anushree Mehrotra and Himanshu Sharma (collectively, the Sharmas) appeal from an order granting summary judgment to Robert Krecak. They contend that the circuit court erroneously exercised its discretion in concluding that their witness, James Jendusa, was not qualified to give an expert opinion, which was necessary to advance their claims against Krecak. We reverse and remand for further proceedings.
