Wisconsin FINALLY adopts a standard for admission of scientific evidence
Feb 18, 2011 @ 01:10 PM — by Andrew Mishlove
After many decades of having no standards whatsoever for the admission of so-called scientific evidence, Wisconsin finally adopted the "Daubert" standard, effective February 1, 2011. As a result, we will be working hard, challenging the slipshod evidence that masquerades as science in Wisconsin courtrooms. We will be challenging Wisconsin's breath testing program and Wisconsin's field sobriety testing program, as failing to meet accepted standards for reliability. We plan to use this new development in Wisconsin law to vigorously defend our clients.
