Medical Malpractice Verdict Gets Tossed

The $11 million medical malpractice verdict for former Dolphins receiver O.J. McDuffie has been tossed. The judge reportedly voided the outcome based on the use of a medical manual as evidence at trial against an orthopedist. A new trial will occur so McDuffie will have another chance at receiving a settlement for his injuries.
