Facts

D moved in Limine to exclude testimony of P's Proffered Expert Witness. D claims that P has failed to serve a proper disclosure under Fed. R. Civ. P. 26(a)(2)(B). A medical report signed by the expert witness and setting forth a summary of his physical examination and medical opinions was provided by Dr. Shechter on or about October 24, 1994.

In discovery, P disclosed that Schechter was being paid $750 for his work and testimony.  D argues that P has failed to make the appropriate disclosures under Fed. R. Civ. P. 26(a)(2)(B) related to retained expert witnesses. P claims he has fully complied with all disclosures pertaining to his expert witness under Fed. R. Civ. P. 26(a)(2).
