Syllabus
CONSTITUTIONAL LAW/CIVIL - MEDICAL MALPRACTICE - STATUTE OF LIMITATIONS - APPELLATE REVIEW/CIVIL : R.C. 2305.113, the statute of repose for medical claims, is constitutional. The trial court erred in failing to dismiss plaintiffs' claims against a doctor and two hospitals for negligence, negligent credentialing and retention, fraud, spoliation of evidence, battery, lack of informed consent, intentional infliction of emotional distress, and vicarious liability where the claims were medical claims that were brought outside the four-year limitations period in R.C. 2305.113. Where plaintiffs waived their constitutional challenges to R.C. 2305.251 and 2305.252, the peer-review immunity statutes, and the trial court modified its judgment to reflect plaintiffs' waiver, the appellate court dismissed as moot the appeals based upon the constitutionality of the statutes.
