How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

• holding that facts did not warrant striking untimely supplemental expert reports where plaintiff timely disclosed the experts’ initial reports well before trial
• finding that delay in finishing expert reports “was partially justified” because both sides were at fault for discovery delays
• observing that Section 622 “requires the plaintiff to file a physician’s certificate of merit and accompanying report with every malpractice complaint’
• noting that “Farmer does not permit . . . claims alleging that a reasonable medical judgment unfortunately led to a bad result . . ..”
• noting that one of the nurses admitted that she knew the plaintiff had appendicitis
• reversing the exclusion of medical testimony because a trial date had not yet been set, it “appeared a long way off,” and there was therefore “no harm” or “unfair surprise” in allowing the testimony
