A jury has ruled in favor of the emergency room doctor who was sued over the death of a child in 2000. The suit alleged that the doctor failed to properly monitor a 17-month-old boy when he was brought to the emergency room. He was initially diagnosed with a middle ear infection, which worsened and resulted in the child's death. The death was ruled to be caused by a bacterial infection and complications related to it.
