What is the Frye standard state?

The Frye standard, established in the 1923 case Frye v. United States, dictates that scientific evidence is admissible in court only if it is "generally accepted" by the relevant scientific community. This standard focuses on the reliability and acceptance of the methodology used rather than the validity of the evidence itself. It emphasizes the importance of peer review and widespread acknowledgment within the scientific field, making it a benchmark for the admissibility of expert testimony in legal proceedings.
