Rule 26(f)(2) of the Mississippi Rules of Civil Procedure specifically addresses the supplementation of expert opinions. What happens when a Plaintiff gets treatment after the discovery deadline though?
Obviously, billing and records associated with a plaintiff's ongoing medical treatment fit into this category of required supplementation. Treatment for medical conditions often does not fit neatly into prescribed legal deadlines and supplementation of this material on a "rolling" basis as the treatment is rendered is considered timely. The situation changes, however, when billings were not timely submitted at or near the time of treatment, but rather collected and submitted long after discovery is closed.
