Multistate Bar Examination Practice Question

In a personal injury lawsuit, the plaintiff presents an expert witness to testify that the defendant's actions directly caused the plaintiff's injury. The defendant argues that the expert's testimony violates the ultimate issue rule. Which of the following best addresses the defendant's argument?

  • The expert should focus on providing factual data and avoid discussing causation to adhere to the ultimate issue rule.

  • The expert's testimony is excluded because determining liability should remain the jury's role and be free from expert influences.

  • The expert's testimony is permissible provided that it clearly outlines their role in assessing the defendant's liability.

  • The expert presents their opinion on causation to assist the jury in understanding complex medical issues without making final determinations on liability.
