Harold Allen

Harold Allen is a doctor who was put on trial related to the death of a patient.
==History==
Harold was sued by a patient's family for malpractice after the patient died. Sam was an expert witness in the case and testified that Harold had given the standard of care. However, when questioned by the other side, he became flustered. In order to save the case, Duncan, Harold's lawyer, decided to put Sam back on the stand. When Sam reviewed the medicine to prepare for this, he discovered that the patient had received morphine for a surgery two years prior, which was overkill unless the patient was allergic to aspirin, which Martin Weiser was. He noticed that it wasn't flagged on the chart, but there was a blank page where that information would have been. He figured out that Harold Allen hadn't been able to revive him because he'd given him aspirin and he was allergic. He went to Harold with the information and Harold said he hid it because he was worried he'd lose everything over that mistake.
The next day in court, Sam testified that Harold had done everything he should have with what he knew at the time. When Corinne Lee questioned what he meant by that, he said that Harold didn't review the patient's medical records, which listed an aspirin sensitivity. Corinne noted that that wasn't in their discovery, which Sam said was due to Harold changing the pages.
==Career==
