Case Details
An original jury verdict of $2.5 million for wrongful birth medical malpractice against an obstetrician was overturned by the 4th DCA. The case involved alleged negligence for not informing parents of fetal limb defects, which would have allowed them to consider terminating the pregnancy.
Additional Notes
The appellate court ruled that the trial judge erred by not allowing the defense to argue Florida's anti-abortion statute.
