No. C 10-03561 WHA

At trial, please do not ask the judge to find that an expert witness is qualified to render

17

expert opinions. This is unnecessary under the Federal Rules of Evidence and is a pointless

18

formality. Once you feel your witness is qualified, simply ask the substantive questions and

19

stay within the scope of the demonstrated expertise.

21

IT IS SO ORDERED.
