Happy Thanksgiving to you all. I hope you all have a great holiday.
The Tennessee Court of Appeals recently issued its opinion in Gilchrist v. Aristorenas, No. W2007-01919-COA-R3-CV (Tenn. Ct. App. Nov. 24, 2008). The Court of Appeals upheld the trial court's grant of summary judgment in favor of the defendant.
This case demonstrates the dangers and pitfalls of handling medical malpractice cases. The plaintiff's expert recanted an earlier plaintiff-friendly opinion during his deposition. This resulted, in part, in the plaintiff not having the necessary expert testimony to rebut the defendant's motion for summary judgment. Therefore, the motion for summary judgment was granted.

The Tennessee Supreme Court recently issued another opinion (with a separate concurring opinion) regarding summary judgment practice in this state. The case is Martin v. Norfolk Southern Ry. Co., E2006-01021-SC-R11-CV (Tenn. Nov. 14, 2008). The Court in Martin reiterates and reaffirms its recent holding in Hannan (see previous post), which is that summary judgment should only be granted when (1) the movant affirmatively negates an essential element of the non-movant's claim; or (2) the movant shows that the non-movant cannot prove an essential element of its claim at trial. Martin, E2006-01021-SC-R11-CV, slip op. at 6.

This election has been one of the most interesting in recent years (and that says a lot when you consider what happened in 2000). I have seen more yard signs, TV ads, and campaign buttons than I have in a while, too. My former high-school Civics teacher, who is now deceased, would be loving the current atmosphere (in fact, I do too).
We all know how important it is to vote; people died so we could have this way of a life, this democracy. A democracy, however, cannot -- and will not -- function properly unless people exercise their right to vote. So, please, no matter who you support, get out today and exercise your right to vote.
Gerry Spence has a blog. There should be some interesting stuff on it every now and then.

Yesterday, the Tennessee Court of Appeals released its opinion in Crespo v. McCullough, No. M2007-02601-COA-R3-CV (Tenn. Ct. App., Oct. 29, 2008). This case is a medical malpractice case involving an alleged medical injury to a child. It held that the three-year statute of repose contained in Tennessee Code Annotated section 29-26-116(a) (2000) was unconstitutional as applied to these particular plaintiffs because it violated their due process and equal protection rights.
The majority's opinion addresses and reconciles any perceived conflict between this opinion and Calaway v. Schucker, 93 S.W.3d 509 (Tenn. 2005). Calaway held that the three-year statute of repose for medical malpractice actions applied to all cases filed after December 9, 2005 (i.e., when Calaway was issued). For purposes of information, the complaint in Crespo, which complained of an injury to a minor more than three years before, was filed on August 2, 2007. Crespo, M2007-02601-COA-R3-CV, slip op. at 10. The plaintiffs in Crespo had relied on the long-established precedents that had held that a minor's claim was tolled until majority.
Judge Swiney issued a brief dissent. He would hold that the Crespo's claim is time-barred under Calaway.
Here's the majority opinion: http://www.tsc.state.tn.us/OPINIONS/TCA/PDF/084/CrespoKOPN.pdf

Medical battery is sometimes overlooked as a potential cause of action when one is reviewing a potential medical-malpractice claim. It shouldn't be. It is viable in Tennessee.
Here is a good case that explains the elements of medical battery in Tennessee: Blanchard v. Kellum, 975 S.W.2d 522, 524 (Tenn. 1998). It is also worth noting that no expert testimony is required in these types of cases. Id. at 523.

The Tennessee Administrative Office of the Courts ("AOC") now has form certificates of good faith on its Web site, which are required by statute to be filed in medical malpractice actions. They are to be filed by a plaintiff to commence an action and by a defendant when the fault of a nonparty is pled as an affirmative defense. Tenn. Code Ann. § 29-26-122 (Supp. 2008).
Here's the link to the AOC's site with both forms:

I found this on MSN. It's an interesting read.
Delay in Serving Summonses Causes Dismissal of WD Case
The Court of Appeals just held that a wrongful death claim was barred by the statute of limitations because the plaintiffs waited eleven months to serve summonses upon the defendants. This delay was a deliberate decision by the plaintiffs. The Court of Appeals held that the plaintiffs intentionally caused a delay of prompt service of the summonses, which violates the Rules of Civil Procedure. See Tenn. R. Civ. P. 4.01(3).
The case is Estate of Butler v. Lamplighter Apartments, No. M2007-02508-COA-R3-CV (Tenn. Ct. App. Aug. 20, 2008).

Here are steps 5 & 6:
5. As soon as your case is resolved you must fax a letter to Medicare at (734) 957-0998. The letter should state: (1) the date the case was resolved; (2) the amount involved; (3) the attorney's fee; and (4) an itemized list of expenses. Call them a few days after the letter has been sent to verify that it was received and request a final demand letter. Again, it will take 30 to 45 days for you to receive the letter. You will also receive another itemization from Medicare and a demand for payment. Be sure to check for unrelated charges. YOU ONLY HAVE 60 DAYS TO SATISFY THE LIEN (unless the the final demand letter states otherwise). You must file an appeal to get rid of the unrelated charges on the final demand letter. This takes approximately 150 days to decide. You must still satisfy the lien while the appeal is pending. Mail the check to: Medicare: MSPRC Liability, P.O. Box 33828, Detroit, MI 48232-3828.
6. This is the easiest step. Wait for Medicare to send you a letter confirming that the lien has been released and that they are closing their file.
Posted by Tony Duncan (615) 620-4471 at 6:56 AM No comments: Links to this post
Here are steps 3 & 4, to wit:
3. Once the Consent to Release Form has been filed with Medicare, you will get an itemization of their lien within 30 to 45 days. Review this very carefully to ensure all charges are related. If any unrelated charges are discovered, send a letter to Medicare immediately asking that the charges be removed. You can fax the request to (734) 957-0998. You won't get a response for another 30 to 45 days. You may also call Medicare at 866-677-7220 a few days after you fax your letter to verify that they received it.
4. Before you make a demand, go to mediation, or to trial, request a conditional payment letter. This can be done by calling 866-677-7220. They will generally not give lien information out over the phone. Also, this will take another 30 to 45 days before you receive the letter.
Steps 5 & 6 to follow.

Is a Lawyer Allowed to Tape Record a Court Proceeding in Tennessee?
A lawyer may tape record a judicial proceeding in Tennessee. This is per statute, to wit: "It is lawful for attorneys representing parties in proceedings in any of the courts of this state to use tape recorders as an aid in making notes of the proceedings." T.C.A. § 20-9-104. Here's a link to the Tennessee Code: http://michie.lexisnexis.com/

Did you know that you can effectuate service of some documents via facsimile under the Tennessee Rules of Civil Procedure? I didn't till today; Rule 5 allows this form of service. See Tenn. R. Civ. P. 5.02 ("Items that may be filed by facsimile transmission pursuant to Rule 5A may be served via facsimile transmission."). Tenn. R. Civ. P. 5A.02(4) lists the documents that can't be filed (or served) via facsimile (e.g., complaints, summonses, wills, affidavits, etc.). Therefore, any document that can be filed with the clerk via facsimile can also be served via facsimile. See Tenn. R. Civ. P. 5.02 & 5A.02(4).

Today the Court of Appeals issued an opinion in Thomas v. Oldfield, No. M2007-01693-COA-R3-CV (Tenn. Ct. App. June 2, 2008). Judge Clement authored the opinion.
The Court of Appeals reversed the trial court's grant of summary judgment to the defendant hospital based upon apparent agency. This ruling is in line with the Tennessee Supreme Court's rulings in Boren v. Weeks and Dewald v. HCA Health Services of Tennessee (both are the subject of my May 7, 2008 post). For purposes of explanation, Boren and Dewald adopted the Restatement (Second) of Torts § 429 as the controlling law in the analysis of whether apparent agency exists.

FYI: This is the second appeal that I know of in this case; the other is the subject of my Nov. 8, 2007 post.

Tennessee Supreme Court Issues Two Opinions on Apparent Agency
Yesterday the Tennessee Supreme Court issued two opinions on apparent agency. The first was Boren ex rel. Boren v. Weeks, No. M2007-00628-SC-R11-CV (Tenn. May 6, 2008); the second was Dewald v. HCA Health Services of Tennessee, No. M2006-02369-SC-R11-CV (Tenn. May 6, 2008). They were consolidated for appeal. The issue on appeal was whether the defendant hospitals could be held liable for the acts of physicians who were allegedly independent contractors.
The Court overruled the Court of Appeals (which had reversed the trial court in both cases) and held that genuine issues of material fact remain that prevent the granting of summary judgment on that common issue. The Court adopted an analysis for the determination of apparent agency as set forth in the Restatement (Second) of Torts § 429. Boren, No. M2007-00628-SC-R11-CV, slip op. at 10-11; Dewald, No. M2006-02369-SC-R11-CV, slip op. at 3-4.

New TN Court of Appeals Decision
The Tennessee Court of Appeals issued an opinion yesterday in Small ex rel. Small v. Shelby County Schools, No. W2007-00045-COA-R3-CV (Tenn. Ct. App. Feb. 12, 2008). In Small, the Court of Appeals addressed the issues of sovereign immunity, the need for expert witness disclosure, comparative fault, and discretionary costs. Id., slip op., at 11-23.
http://www.tsc.state.tn.us/OPINIONS/TCA/PDF/081/SmallEmmanualOPN.pdf
I'm not sure, however, that Small, as it relates to comparative fault, can be reconciled with George v. Alexander, 931 S.W.2d 517 (Tenn. 1996) and Rule 8.03 of the Tennessee Rules of Civil Procedure. I want to do some more research on this matter; but for informational purposes, I thought I'd bring it to your attention at this time.
Update on Mississippi Med Mal Case
Remember my posts in October 2007 about the Mississippi med mal case where the court of appeals held that evidence of liability insurance was not unfairly prejudicial? The court denied the request for a rehearing in this case on January 29, 2008.
The case is styled Wells v. Jackson Healthcare for Women, P.A. It's status of the case can be checked here:
http://www.mssc.state.ms.us/GeneralDocket/default.asp
The "Case Year:" is 2006 and the "Case Seq:" is 00385.
FYI: Mississippi's Rule 411 of Evidence is substantially similar to Tennessee's Rule 411. Therefore, this case offers persuasive authority for a similar ruling in Tennessee.

I _______________ do solemnly swear (or affirm) that as a member of this General Assembly, I will, in all appointments, vote without favor, affection, partiality, or prejudice; and that I will not propose or assent to any bill, vote or resolution, which shall appear to me injurious to the people, or consent to any act or thing, whatever, that shall have a tendency to lessen or abridge their rights and privileges, as declared by the Constitution of this state.
Tenn. Const. art. X, § 2 (emphasis added).
This is the oath that a member of the Tennessee General Assembly is administered before she or he takes office.
You'd think this oath alone (if meant when sworn to or affirmed) would prevent a member of the General Assembly from voting for any bill supporting caps on a citizens's right to damages or a citizen's right to sue a corporation (with a jury). After all, who does the legislature represent, corporations or the people?

If a plaintiff has made out his or her case and no evidence tending to contradict it is offered, the trial court has a duty to direct a verdict. Robert E. Burch, Trial Handbook for Tennessee Lawyers §32:3, at 562 n.4 (2007-08 Thomson-West) (citing numerous sources).
Under the proper circumstances, the court may direct a verdict in favor of either party, even though the effect of the grant is to deprive a party of his or her right to a jury trial. Id. § 32:1, at 561 n.1 (citing Tenn. R. Civ. P. 50.01).
This is a great tool that may be at used at trial when you find that your proof is uncontroverted. See id.
Thanks to Judge Burch who has authored an invaluable book. This book is a must-have for every attorney in Tennessee.
