Twin Hill Acquisition, Inc., properly exercised its gatekeeping function and applied the admissibility standard, as clarified by amended FRE 702. The brief urges the Seventh Circuit to use this decision to issue corrective guidance to district courts and Circuit litigants on the proper application of amended FRE 702.
