The burden is on Defendant to establish by a preponderance of the evidence that Professor Fischel’s testimony is admissible. See 2000 Adv. Comm. Notes to Fed. R.

Corp., 580 F.Supp.2d 1071, 1107 (D.Colo.,2006) (“critiques of an expert’s evidence gathering techniques ... generally go to the weight of the evidence, not its admissibility,” citing Little Hocking, 90 F.Supp.3d at 764 (S.D. Ohio 2015)).

It is of no matter that discovery documents concerning Defendant’s knowledge were provided to him by Plaintiffs’ counsel.

Similarly, Dr. Siegel’s opinion that Defendant knew or should have known that its air emissions of PFOA would result in groundwater contamination is admissible under Rule 702. Dr. Case 5:16-cv-00125-gwc Document 246 Filed 02/25/19 Page 90 of 99 91 Siegel has the appropriate experience to provide this opinion, and his review of available documents and scientific literature is the manner in which an expert formulates an opinion about the state of knowledge in a given field.

Even Dr. Klatsky’s opinion concerning the life expectancy for Mr. Harrison, based on the life expectancy of a months-old baby in 2011, is unreliable and should be precluded under F.R.E. 702. Dr. Klatsky assumed that Mr. Harrison must have started drinking excessively in 1993, because Mr. Harrison stood outside his ex-wife’s (Plaintiffs’ mother’s) home with gifts and cried and yelled trying to reconcile with her.
