Decided June 20, 2012No. 11-50193PublishedCited by 177 opinions

1Per curiam

In this toxic tort case, we consider whether the district court erred in: (1) excluding the opinions of Gregory Johnson’s expert witnesses on the element of causation; and (2) granting summary judgment in favor of Arkema, Inc. because Johnson was unable to prove causation *457without the opinions of his excluded causation experts. We AFFIRM the district court’s judgment in all respects except as to Johnson’s claims regarding his acute injuries, on which we REVERSE and REMAND for further proceedings.
