Judge Wettick Affirms Practice of Limiting Deposition Opinions of Defendant Physicians

 

Legal precedent affirms traditional practice … or does it?

“Objection! I instruct my client not to answer the question.” If you have received that objection during a medical trial, chances are good that you just asked the defendant for their opinion about the standard of care of a patient … and the defendant is not the specialist who should be answering the question. Read about trial court opinions Lattaker and Karim, which have set legal precedent for more and more cases that are resistant to the limitations of deposition opinion testimony.
