Sherwin-Williams Co. v. GAINES EX REL. POLLARD

PIERCE, Justice,

for the Court:

¶ 1. In this personal-injury, products-liability ease, the jury awarded the plaintiff $7 million, finding that Trellvion Gaines had been brain-damaged from exposure to lead. In an effort to convince this Court to reverse the trial judgment and to render judgment in its favor, the defendant, Sherwin-Williams Company, challenges the reliability of plaintiffs causation experts and fact witnesses. In the alternative, Sherwin-Williams alleges that unreliable, unfairly prejudicial, and untimely disclosed expert testimony and a biased jury pool require a new trial.
