Settlement Backfires In Malpractice Case At Holy Cross
A Maryland jury, after eight days of trial, approved a 500000 settlement with Holy Cross Hospital and its doctors. The jurors, released before verdict, indicated they would have ruled for the plaintiffs, Edward and Myra Farrell, whose son Jimmy, age six, was blinded after premature birth in Silver Spring on October 12, 1989, allegedly due to excessive oxygen in his incubator. Attorneys for both sides hailed the accord as vindication, while a third of the funds will go to lead counsel Goldberg and co attorney Humphreys.
