Case Details
Nam Lee died from an inflamed gallbladder after his surgery was repeatedly delayed at New York Hospital Queens. A jury found the hospital liable for $7.6 million.
Additional Notes
A jury took note of the family’s plight and found the hospital liable for $7.6 million, an unusually high amount in New York state, where wrongful death suits are only allowed to consider economic losses, and not take into account factors like emotional pain and suffering. Lee’s widow said she plans to use the money to bring her daughter home from the state institution, but doesn’t start spending yet-the hospital is appealing the award.
