Hill, Chief Justice,
concurring.
Where a purported expert testifies as to his or her opinion on deposition, must objection that the witness has not been properly qualified as an expert be made then, or can such objection be made at trial? See 8 Wright & Miller, Federal Practice and Procedure: Civil, § 2156; 4A Moore’s Federal Practice, ¶ 32.09.
Heretofore, this question has been unresolved in this state. The court has now resolved the question (Division 1) according to the plain meaning of the applicable statute, by requiring that such objection be made at the taking of the deposition.
