Per discipline: a structured FRE 702 motion-to-exclude template (~250 words editable), a recommended cross-examination question bank (10-15 questions), a cumulative-error history with verified citations, and the lead authority's verbatim finding (PCAST, NAS, FBI/DOJ, or NRC) with the source URL stored in the brief's bibliography.
No. The templates are research artifacts modeled on the published critique literature in each discipline. Counsel of record adapts the motion language to circuit-specific FRE 702 doctrine and the facts of the case before filing.
A single Daubert literature pull and motion draft commonly takes 6-10 hours of attorney time. At a typical CJA panel rate (~$172/hr) the recovered billable time is $1,000-$1,720 per discipline. The brief is priced at roughly 11.5% of that, well under the implicit hourly rate of pulling the literature yourself.
Buying all 10 disciplines individually would be $1,970. The bundle is priced at half — for solo practices that handle a mixed forensic caseload, the marginal cost of disciplines you do not file this year is small relative to the up-front time savings on the ones you do.
Every quote in every brief carries a source URL stored alongside the citation. Lead authorities are PCAST 2016, NAS 2009, NAS 2014 (eyewitness ID), NRC 2003 (polygraph), NRC 1979 (voice ID), and the FBI/DOJ 2015 hair-microscopy review. Cumulative-error histories cite published Innocence Project corpus, NACDL Champion articles, and reported appellate opinions where the discipline was excluded or limited.
