Jury Settles Malpractice Case Against Cross Hospital
A $3.5 million malpractice suit against Cross Hospital ended with a last minute $500,000 settlement after 10 hours of deliberation. Edward and Myra Farrell alleged their son Jimmy, now 6, was blinded at birth in Silver Spring Maryland due to excessive oxygen in the incubator. The hospital argued oxygen was necessary to aid breathing and prevent brain damage. Jurors indicated they would have ruled for the hospital if they had reached a verdict.
