June 22, 2022 Opinion or Order Filing 524 OPINION & ORDER: Defendant's motion to reconsider is DENIED. The judicial decisions that Defendant references are inapposite. Those decisions deal with quite complex issues of causation of an injury, such as whether exposure to a particular s et of chemicals can cause a specific type of cancer. See Wills v. Amerada Hess Corp., 379 F.3d 32, 46 (2d Cir. 2004) ("[T]he causal link between exposure to toxins and other behavior and squamous cell carcinoma is sufficiently beyond the know ledge of the lay juror that expert testimony is required to establish causation."). In contrast, the issue of whether a blow to one's head can cause damage to one's brain is not disputed in this case. Defendant merely contends that it was a different blow to Ms. Tardif's head, years after the incident at issue in this case, that caused her recent and current symptoms. Moreover, the Court is permitting Dr. Krishna to testify to several aspects of causation, including the identification of the T2 white matter hyperintensity that the experts say is a sign of damage to parts of Ms. Tardif's braineven if he may not directly link the specific symptoms of November 2020 or the diagnosis of TBI to the incident on March 21, 2012 and further set forth in this Order.
