Davis v. Brickman Landscaping, Ltd.
(A-22/23/24-12; 071310)
Plaintiffs were required to establish the applicable standard of care through expert testimony. The standard of care set forth by plaintiffs’ expert constituted an inadmissible net opinion because it lacked objective support. Summary judgment in defendants’ favor was appropriate because, as a result of plaintiffs’ failure to support their asserted standard of care, they were unable to establish the required elements of their negligence claim.
