Ohio Jury Renders Negligence Verdict On Different Basis Than What Lawyers Argued - Verdict Rightfully Upheld
Posted: October 29, 2012
A medical negligence case in Ohio resulted in a verdict for an injured young boy against a doctor. What was surprising was that neither side argued the basis of the jury's verdict. I know both lawyers well and they are super lawyers. But sometimes the jury sees things differently and makes their decision based on facts that neither attorney argued. As long as there is evidence to support the jury's theory of the case then the verdict should stand.
