The resistivity of CeCoIn_5 was measured down to 20 mK in magnetic fields of up to 16 T. With increasing field, we observe a suppression of the non-Fermi liquid behavior, rho~T, and the development of a Fermi liquid state, with its characteristic rho=rho_0+AT^2 dependence. The field dependence of the T^2 coefficient shows critical behavior with an exponent of ~4/3. This is evidence for a new field-induced quantum critical point, occuring in this case at a critical field which coincides with the superconducting upper critical field H_c2.
