Student Seeking Delay in Malpractice Case

A former student who is suing Ohio University for allegedly medical malpractice is reportedly asking for a delay in the trial. According to reports, the student has asked the appeals court to delay the trial as she claims the statutes and limit on monetary damages against universities are unconstitutional. She is accusing the school's health center of diagnosing her as having necrotizing fasciitis, a flesh-eating bacteria, which resulted in her arm being amputated. However, she claims that it was a misdiagnosis.
