Medical Malpractice Case to be Heard Again
Posted on Jan 24, 2011 8:45pm PST
A medical malpractice case will be heard once more in relation to a woman who believes she deserves more money. The woman was awarded $760,000 in a case where a doctor removed the incorrect ovary during a 2002 operation. The judge reportedly reduced the amount she was originally awarded by claiming that no economic losses couldn’t surpass $250,000. He also dropped $100,000 that was awarded for future medical expenses. The woman’s attorney claims that the cap violates her rights to trial by jury.
