Case Details
Federal government ordered to pay $33.8 million for medical malpractice after a U.S. District Court judge found a physician negligent, leading to irreversible brain damage in a baby during birth.
Additional Notes
The attending physician ignored the mother's request for a cesarean section and left to attend another delivery. The baby suffered brain damage due to oxygen deprivation. Both sides agreed a C-Section would have averted the damage.
