Pediatric medical mistakes are often too similar to those made in cases involving adults such as delays in diagnosis, misdiagnosis or medication errors. However, pediatricians have specialized training to ensure that the treatment, care and medications they provide are suitable and safe for young patients. Therefore, when mistakes are made with regard to a child's treatment, the results can be devastating. If you are a new patient, please check with Dr. Masterson before scheduling an appointment.

2 At page 18 of the parents' brief, under the heading of Constructive Notice to the district of the teacher's wrongful conduct, there is a listing of items. One of those items we have already covered in footnote 1. Other items involve similar distortions of the record. We quote from the brief then point out what the record really said.(a) During the Yosemite trip, AUHSD supervisors never cautioned Defendant-teacher about leaving the campsite alone with minor student at night but joked about it instead. (RT 522, 524, 525-529).There is no evidence that the two other adults on the trip were supervisors in the sense of having administrative positions in the district. They were cross-country coaches. What happened is that the student asked one of her friends to accompany her to the showers, the friend refused to go, the teacher volunteered, and one of the cross-country coaches made a comment in a joking manner, oh, you guys are going to the shower together? The fact that the statement was made, but made in a joking manner, indicates that the cross-country teacher was only pointing out, in a friendly way, the appearance of impropriety. Yet it was dark, and it was clear someone had to accompany the student. There was far more danger in letting a student wander off by herself in a wilderness area than in having a male teacher accompany her.(b) Defendant-teacher used minor-student's history teacher to pass her the pornographic letter (RT 482-483) in Exhibit 13 which was read to the jury. (RT 588).The lurid pornographic fantasy letter read into the record from pages 481 through 487 of the reporter's transcript was handed to the student by the teacher directly. (Q. He handed it to you right there at the school? A. Yes.) The teacher gave another letter, the one referred to at page 588 of the reporter's transcript, to a history teacher to give to the student. That letter, read into the record at pages 580 through 582, is not pornographic. It is a series of time entries centered around the teacher's anxiety for a phone call from the student (e.g., 11:30 No Call. � 2:30. Up, no sleep. Is she okay? �). Parts of the letter are in code or allude to personal codes, such as A for the teacher's wife, and an allusion to a convention where the student was to call the teacher's house but only ring once. That letter, if read closely, would alert the reader to a probable sexual relationship between the teacher and the student. And while it might have been read (because it was not in an envelope) there was no evidence that it was read. The teacher who served as relay was not called as a witness.(c) Defendant-teacher had minor-student's failing grade in history changed to passing by this same teacher. (RT 592-594).This is correct. The student testified that the teacher told her that he talked to the history teacher and took care of changing a grade from a D or F to a C.(d) AUHSD teacher Ms. A � looked directly at Defendant-teacher when he was having sex with minor student in his van in the AUHSD parking lot and didn't report it. (RT 493, 496).We have already discussed this item of evidence above. There is no evidence that Ms. A. saw anything in the van.(e) He frequently sent minor student flower grams signed �Love S � ' thru an AUHSD teacher. (RT 912-921).Four times a year school cheerleaders sold flower grams in which they would take orders (and money) and a flower would be delivered to a second period class, where the teacher would give the flower to the student. The teacher here sent the student a flower gram a number of times, requiring the second-period teacher to read at least her name to give it to her.(f) He left a red rose for her with a note signed �Love S � ' with the AUHSD office secretary where minor student was working. (RT 910-912)While the student was working as an office assistant in the principal's office, the teacher brought a red rose with a flower card tied to the vase, to the office, and gave it to a staff person (the secretary) to give to the student.(g) When a fellow teacher who was a track coach saw Defendant-teacher give minor student the Victoria Secrets Gift certificate, he said he wanted to see what Defendant-teacher would give her for her 18th birthday. (RT 813-814, 1030-1031)For the student's 17th birthday, she and two friends, and the teacher and the track coach, gathered in the teacher's room for a small birthday party in the morning before class. The student received three presents, gift-wrapped: a beach blanket, some lotion, and a $50 gift certificate to Victoria's Secret. The track coach remarked at the end of the gift giving, Gee, S � , what are you going to give her for her 18th birthday?(h) At least 11 different teachers, including the principal, saw Defendant-teacher drive minor student away from the school campus during the three years he was molesting her but no one reported him. (RT 1173-1176) AUHSD policy prohibited teachers from driving students in their cars. (RT 1207-1209; 1262; 1276)The cited record references show that a female science teacher and track coach (the other teacher who had been on the Yosemite trip) testified that it was not advised for teachers to drive students in their cars. (They advise us not to do it. They would prefer that we do not do it.) Later she acknowledged that the athletic director had an understanding that teachers are not supposed to give students a ride home from school or any place. This track coach saw the student and teacher get into the teacher's vehicle (she thought it was a station wagon of some sort, not a van). A teacher from a junior high school, however, admitted on cross-examination that there is an absolute rule in Anaheim Union School District that students are not to be in teacher's cars. This junior high teacher saw the teacher and the student in the teacher's vehicle twice. However, a few pages later this same junior high teacher testified that it was only a general policy and he himself had driven students home when there was a necessity for it. (I've driven students home. The district general policy is not to do that, but I have done that. There are some situations where I have felt it was necessary to take the student home.) He gave some examples, including a student taking a make-up test after school and it was raining, or if the mother was sick in bed, or a student who got very ill after school and had no way to get home. And while most of the time he would talk to the parent, in the case of the very ill student he didn' principal testified that it was a policy at the high school that teachers should not leave campus with a student alone on unrelated school activity. Though the policy was not in writing, it was well-known professionally that this was not a good idea. The information, however, was well-known from the courses teachers would take in college to become credentialed, as distinct from being a formal rule conveyed to them by the district itself.

No: 70014 Charity invokes Non-Profit Immunity from VerdictA Suffolk Superior Court Judge has agreed to allow the Salvation Army to pay just 10% of a $200,000 judgment for crippling injuries caused to 88-year old Alice Shaw, who had to sell her home of 50 years and had to be subsequently put into an assisted living complex.

San Diego County Legal Examiner San Diego County California Personal Injury Lawyer Aside from its size, the Erie birth injury verdict is noteworthy for the absence of any compensation for pain and suffering or loss of enjoyment of life. While the jury found that Hamot was negligent and caused the baby to have a terrible injury and while the jury was willing to award sizeable compensation for past and future medical expense and future lost earnings, the jury also apparently found that the baby did not deserve a penny for the loss of the ordinary pleasures of life. The jury's reasoning in this regard was not apparent from the verdict. that his mental impairments substantially limit him in the major life activities

Respondent violated MLRPC 8.1(b) when he knowingly failed to respond to lawful demands for information from the office of Bar Counsel. However, as previously discussed, this Court declined to make a factual finding regarding whether Respondent arranged for Mr. Oguine to assist the Shupes with their case while he was in Nigeria. Accordingly, this Court does not find that Respondent violated MLRPC 8.1(a) and 8.4(c), on the basis charged by Bar Counsel, that he knowingly made a false statement to Bar Counsel concerning his representation of the Shupes and the alleged arrangement he made with Mr. Oguine to assist him in their matter. Nevertheless, this Court finds that Respondent violated MLRPC 8.4(c) on the basis that Respondent engaged in uncontradicted allegations involving fraud, deceit and misrepresentation when he instructed Mr. and Mrs. Shupe to lie to the Court, at the February 26, 2007 hearing, by stating that they had fired him, in order to cover up his misconduct.

The Importance of a Good Fit in a Dental Practice Transition On February 20, 2001, HealthSouth moved for a summary judgment, stating as grounds that no genuine issue of material fact existed as to the defendants' breach of the standard of care. HealthSouth supported its motion with the affidavit of Lola Patterson, R.N. On March 1, 2001, the Heaths responded to HealthSouth's summary-judgment motion with the affidavit testimony of Julie Akin, R.N. On March 2, 2001, HealthSouth submitted a supplemental affidavit of Ms. Patterson that was substantially the same as the initial affidavit, along with a certified copy of Heath's medical records from her November 1999 hospital stay at HealthSouth. Shortly thereafter, HealthSouth moved to strike Ms. Akin's affidavit, contending that she was not a qualified expert pursuant to the Alabama Medical Liability Act, � 6-5-548, 1975, which requires that the health-care expert have practiced in the same discipline as the health-care-provider defendant �during the year preceding the date that the alleged breach of standard of care occurred.' � 6-5-548(b)(3). The trial court determined that Ms. Akin did not meet those requirements, struck her affidavit, and granted HealthSouth's summary-judgment motion.
