A quick definition of nontestifying expert:
A nontestifying expert is someone who knows a lot about a certain topic and helps one side in a court case, but they don't have to go to court to talk about it. They are called consulting experts. They give their opinions to the side that hired them, but they don't have to share their opinions with the other side. There are also impartial experts who are chosen by the court to give an unbiased opinion, and testifying experts who are expected to go to court and talk about their opinions.A more thorough explanation:
A nontestifying expert is a type of expert who is hired by a party in a legal case to provide their opinion or expertise on a particular subject, but is not expected to testify in court. This type of expert is also known as a consulting expert.
For example, in a medical malpractice case, a doctor may be hired as a nontestifying expert to review medical records and provide their opinion on whether the defendant doctor acted negligently. However, they would not be called to testify in court.
Nontestifying experts are generally exempt from the scope of discovery, meaning that their opinions and work are not subject to disclosure to the other party in the case.
