Gurumurthy Kalyanaram, Dean, Expert Witness and Former Professor NYIT and UT Dallas – Reports on Expert Witness in Litigation

Gurumurthy Kalyanaram, Dean, Expert Witness and former NYIT and UT Dallas professor Gurumurthy Kalyanaram reports on the need and status of expert witness in lawsuits (litigation).

Experts provide important inputs in arbitrations and litigations (lawsuits). Their input/counsel gives the fact-finder an objective rendition of the facts and assessment of those facts, and facilitates fair adjudication of the dispute/lawsuit.

Without an appropriate expert litigation (lawsuit) can flounder. In a decision in July 2014, Honorable Judge Laura Taylor Swain dismissed the class-action (Celebrex and Bextra) lawsuit against Pfizer because, “Plaintiffs' failure to proffer admissible loss causation and damages evidence is fatal to plaintiffs' claims" after the defendant admitted "without a damages expert a securities fraud trial can't be tried.”

Gurumurthy Kalyanaram – Reports on the Bhopal Tragedy Lawsuit against Union Carbide (US)

Dr Gurumurthy Kalyanaram - Former Dean and former NYIT and UT Dallas professor, and expert witness, Gurumurthy Kalyanaram reports on the Bhopal Tragedy lawsuit against Union Carbide (US).

A lawsuit filed by Earth Rights International in the U.S. District Court against Union Carbide (US) for the Bhopal Gas Tragedy was recently dismissed by Justice John Keenan. I am familiar with John Keenan’s decisions – he is generally inclined to grant motions for summary judgment unless the plaintiff in the lawsuit can show robust evidence of dispute of fact(s). Justice Keenan’s threshold is high. He has been a senior judge since mid-1990s.

On Religious Freedom, Town of Greece v. Galloway Gurumurthy Kalyanaram Lawsuit

Galloway and several other residents filed a lawsuit complaining that his freedom of religious expression was violated by his town, Greece in New York, because the town board regularly began its meetings with a Christian-faith based prayer. The Court ruled in favor of the town holding that town boards may start their meetings with sectarian prayers, and do not have to make undue efforts to represent all the faiths. The Court held that the First Amendment was not violated.   This Court’s ruling is similar to the 1983 holding that Nebraska Legislature's practice of starting its sessions with a prayer, saying the practice was "deeply embedded in the history and tradition of this country."
