   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  06-1324
   U.S. District Court for the Western District of Missouri - Kansas City   
   [PUBLISHED] [Gruender, Author, with Wollman and Riley, Circuit Judges]
Civil case - Products liability. In the absence of any evidence that plaintiff's expert used reliable principles and methods or applied them reliably to the facts of the case to form his opinion regarding the cause of the fire, the district court did not err in finding that his causation opinion did not satisfy Rule 702 and was inadmissible; without the expert testimony on causation, plaintiff's case fails, and the district court did not err in granting defendant's motion for summary judgment.
