A Philadelphia jury awards $25 million to man who lost limb due to
medical malpractice. A Philadelphia jury awarded over $25 million in
a malpractice suit against Temple University Hospital
Temple called this award "excessive" and intends to appeal for a
lowered amount.
Some states have caps on non-economic damages in malpractice cases,
but these are controversial.
This past May, a Philadelphia jury awarded $25.9 million to Eddie
Parks in a case against Temple University Hospital. Parks filed suit
against the Philadelphia hospital in 2019 after a 2018 emergency room
visit for an injury to his right leg resulted in a 39-day stay and
eventual lower-limb amputation.
