Montana Supreme Court

J. Norris v. R. Olson

June 11, 20242024 MT 123

Summary

The Court held that genuine issues of material fact precluded summary judgment on whether A&O's conduct caused the fire, because the expert report and related testimony provided a non-speculative causal theory. The Court also held that the District Court did not abuse its discretion by denying exclusion of Norris's experts, given the parties' agreed deposition procedures and the failure to serve the required subpoena. The case was affirmed in part, reversed in part, and remanded.
