Description
At issue is the admissibility of adverse opinion evidence offered by a treating physician against the plaintiff, his former patient in a malpractice action filed against another physician. In this case, the Court of Appeals reversed the defendant's jury verdict and held that the trial court should have balanced, on the record, the probative value of the proposed adverse testimony against the danger of its unfair prejudice under ER 403 before admitting the testimony. We granted review and now reverse the Court of Appeals.
