Janet M. REED v. Norman BOUCHARD d/b/a Bouchard’s Excavating

No. 84-308Supreme Court of Vermont.
June 20, 1986.

Appeal from Lamoille Superior Court.

The testimony of the plaintiff, objected to as a matter for an expert, was rationally based upon her perceptions, V.R.E. 701, and fell within the scope of common experience, see SouthBurlington School District v. Calcagni-Frazier-ZajchowskiArchitects, Inc., 138 Vt. 33, 46, 410 A.2d 1359, 1365 (1980). Therefore, it was properly admissible.

We find no error in the court’s ruling as to the contract formed or the damages awarded.

Affirmed.
