Legal jury verdict on surgeon negligence case from 1796
The trial features Mr Serjeant Cockle and Mr Serjeant Shepherd defending a surgeon-plaintiff against a claim for nine guineas for work and medicines. Lord Espey outlines that a self-styled surgeon must prove general skill and case-specific dexterity, with verdicts varying by whether the practitioner is generally skilled and acted diligently in the three cases. The jury eventually returns a verdict for the plaintiff at six guineas.
