(concurring in part, dissenting in part, and joining OPALA, Vice Chief Justice, in part).
I dissent for the reasons stated in the dissenting opinion in Boyanton v. Reif 798 P.2d 603, 605 (Okla.1990). I also dissent because under the Okla. Const. art. 5, § 46,1 the statute, 76 O.S.1981 § 21, is unconstitutional.2

. Title 12 O.S.1981 § 2201(A) provides:
“A. Judicial notice shall be taken by the court of the common law, constitutions and public statutes in force in every state, territory and jurisdiction of the United States.”
Title 76 O.S.1981 § 21 could be cured by striking “In any action arising from negligence in the rendering of medical care."
