Federal Tort Claims Act Case

On Monday U.S. District Judge Carlton Reeves entered a judgment of $1,903,961 in Chickaway v. U.S. located here.  This was a Federal Tort Claims Act case dealing with medical negligence.  I previously discussed the Federal Tort Claims Act here.    The opinion in the case does one of the best jobs I have seen in discussing all the elements of proof in a medical malpractice claim which makes it worth adding to the research file.
