What is the test for excluding expert testimony from a trial?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from People v. Roden, 2d Crim. No. B277830 (Cal. App. 2018):

A trial court may exclude such expert testimony "if there is other evidence that substantially corroborates the eyewitness identification and gives it independent reliability." (People v. Jones (2003) 30 Cal.4th 1084, 1112.) Here the trial court found there was such evidence to corroborate the eyewitness testimony.
