Very refreshing to have a nice, light case. It helps get the bad taste out of my mouth after the update on the terrible colovaginal anastomosis case a few weeks ago.
I wonder if the defendant only settled because the settlement amount ended up being lower than the continued legal costs of defending against the case. That's why it's too bad that these settlement amounts are all confidential!

That one was crazy! I still feel bad for the patient in this case but at least it ended with the relief of knowing he didn't have cancer.
Any chance we can find out what the plaintiff's law firm was so I can be sure to never ever retain their services?
As an Operating Room Nurse and Pathology Nurse, I find this disturbing.

Very real possibility. I really wish we could see the settlement amounts too!
Great summary and wonderful breakdown of the process.
Thanks! I really enjoyed writing this case and boiling down years of legal issues to a short article.
