St. Eve: The Court grants in part and denies in part without prejudice Defendants' motion in limine no. 14 59 in which they seek to bar evidence of lay opinions regarding Plaintiff's physical and emotional injuries. Lay witnesses may testify regarding their observations and matters of personal knowledge. See Fed.R.Evid. 602. As such, "Rule 701 permits even a lay witness to testify in the form of opinions or inferences drawn from her observations when testimony in that form will be helpful to the trier of fact." Beech Aircraft Corp. v. Rainey, 488 U.S. 153, 169, 109 S.Ct. 439, 102 L.Ed.2d 445 (1988); see also Fed.R.Evid. 701(a),(b).

The Court will address individual foundation questions as they arise during the course of the trial testimony. Mailed notice (kef, ) (Entered: 11/24/2010)" @default.
