We prove error bounds for the rate at which the Wigner transform of the wave function of the weak coupling Schrodinger equation goes to a Boltzmann equation. We use a stationary phase approach to establish an asymptotic expansion that provides the error bound. The stationary phase argument is non-standard because the expressions evaluated do not have smooth decay. Our work extends results developed by L. Erdo&huml;s and H. T. Yau.
