$400,000 Awarded in Medical Malpractice Case

A jury awarded a man and his wife $400,000 in damages for a medical malpractice case that involved a gall bladder surgery that went wrong. Allegedly, the doctor performed gall bladder surgery on the man and erroneously divided and slipped the common duct in two places instead of dividing the cystic duct. As a result, the hole in the common duct allowed bile to drain directly into the abdominal cavity. However, after the jury's decision, the doctor has filed a motion indicating that he will be asking for a new trial.
