Two Birth Injury Lawsuits Could Cost Government
Posted on Oct 9, 2010 6:45pm PDT
Two families have recently filed birth injury lawsuits over botched deliveries that occurred at different military hospitals. As a result, these lawsuits could cost the government more than $20 million as one child ended up dead and the other is permanently disabled with cerebral palsy. Both lawsuits have been brought under the Federal Tort Claims Act which allows private parties to file lawsuits against the U.S. for damages caused by someone working on the federal government's behalf.
