The following excerpt is from Sementilli v. Trinidad Corp., 155 F.3d 1130 (9th Cir. 1998):
In the other two cases cited by the majority, the expert whose testimony was excluded conducted extensive on-site investigations of the accident locations at issue. See Maffei v. Northern Ins. Co. of New York, 12 F.3d 892, 895 (9th Cir.1993) (on-site investigation of warehouse to determine possible cause of fire); Bieghler v. Kleppe, 633 F.2d 531, 533 (9th Cir.1980) (on-site investigation of tunnel where motorcycle accident occurred).
