Alabama Supreme Court Declines to Adopt Daubert

From Edward Still, we learn that the Supreme Court of Alabama has again declined an invitation to adopt Daubert, this time in a medical malpractice case. The decision has not yet been approved for publication and is not yet available on the web. See Martin v. Dyas, No. 1020286 (Ala. Sup. Ct. Aug. 13, 2004).
