Dr. Mandler's illness is not plaintiff's fault and plaintiff will be prejudiced if an adequate substitute is not permitted. However, the Court agrees with defendant that this last minute substitution is unfair. Accordingly, the expert will not be able to offer any new opinions numbered 1-5 (p.6), and the court will grant a brief continuance if defendant seeks it in order to prepare (i.e. 2-4 weeks)."
