Did the trial court err by restricting Husband from traveling outside of the United States with the children?
Husband first contends that the family court erred in restricting his travel with the children because the court wrongfully relied on testimony from Wifes expert that went beyond her qualification as an expert witness. We disagree. Wifes expert witness was qualified by the court as an expert on child abduction in the Middle East and the remedies that might be available for people who find themselves in that predicament. The court went on, however, to limit that qualification to those precise topics and expressly held that she was not qualified as an expert on the law of Iran. Husband contends that her subsequent testimony on legal remedies for the recovery of abducted children and the recognition of American passports in Iran was admitted in error as it overstepped the limitations of her qualification as an expert. Permitting an expert witness to testify beyond the scope of his or her expertise can constitute reversible error. See Nelson v. Taylor, 347 S.C. 210, 218, 553 S.E.2d 488, 49
