DeHanes v. Rothman

In DeHanes v. Rothman, 158 N.J. 90, 93, 727 A.2d 8 (1999), the court noted that: "A jury's common knowledge and experience is always available to help it assess whether an aggregate sum or 'bottom-line' figure presented by counsel or an expert represents fair and just compensation." Id. at 102, 727 A.2d 8. Furthermore, the court noted that economic calculations by an expert can be readily challenged during cross-examination. "Our discovery rules allow anticipation of an expert's testimony so that an expert's economic projections may be completely rebutted, if not destroyed." Id. at 101, 727 A.2d 8.
