Defense Seeks To Bar Portier Testimony

As expected, defense lawyers have asked the DC court to not allow Christopher Portier to be an expert witness in this case.

In a filing yesterday, the team representing the cell phone industry, argued that, “[A]llowing a new expert four months before the long-planned Daubert hearing would disrupt the existing schedule and unfairly prejudice Defendants.”

The filing was signed by Terry Dee of McDermott Will & Emery in Chicago on behalf of himself and 37 other lawyers at 23 law firms.

Portier was retained by the plaintiff attorneys in March 15, 2015 with the payment of a $5,000 retainer. It is not clear why his report was filed last month, close to six years later.

No word on when the judge may rule on Portier’s participation.

Here are few examples of ICNIRP-bubble…

• Clear indication that ICNIRP review of science is skewed and should be independently validated
• BERENIS disagrees with ICNIRP
• Leszczynski: Statement on the need for validation of ICNIRP’s review of science
• Leszczynski: There is something utterly wrong with the ICNIRP membership
• Significant discrepancy of opinions on 5G and health between ICNIRP and the Health Council of the Netherlands

…and a news message from Joel Moskowitz…

Christopher J. Portier, former director of the National Center for Environmental Health at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR), and a scientific advisor for the World Health Organization (WHO), recently completed an expert report on brain tumor risk from exposure to radio frequency (RF) radiation used in cellphone technology.
