I like the fact that the attorney is quoted as saying that since it was a simple mistake and that there was no “bad faith” that he should not have to pay the doctors legal fees. Perhaps we can make lack of “bad faith” a grounds of dismissal in all malpractice cases.
Cheaper pay the million than legal fee $$ over next few years and $till loose big $$ over distress claims. Plus being on your site next few years.
Getting lots publicity against the slot machine company and casin0 !!
