Today, Crash Connell and guest Scott Schara, Grace’s dad, discuss the breaking news – the first Medical Battery claim, in decades, will be heard at a jury trial. A victory in this case will open the floodgates for others to obtain justice, but more importantly to stop the behavior. What this case means:
- Medical malpractice state statutory protection no longer applies when doctors commit crimes without the patient’s knowledge
- Medical malpractice insurance protection also no longer applies
- The statute of limitations on wrongful death claims is increased substantially
- Intentional torts facilitate punitive damages, so attorneys would be willing to take wrongful death cases on contingency
Mark your calendars. The three week jury trial begins November 4, 2024.
