They should never make the mistake of wishing and hoping that the pain will go away. Trust me when I say that it won't. It will only get worse.

About Our Firm: We have offices in Virginia Beach, Hampton, and Norfolk, Not surprisingly, I believe the jurisdictional question should be approached differently in light of the bailment relationship that existed between the parties and the University of Illinois. I have already demonstrated that the duties assumed by defendant in this case arose from a bailment relationship that existed between him and the plaintiffs-this much was clear from the limited facts surrounding the horse's treatment contained in the complaint. 4 However, the affidavits attached to the motion to dismiss make clear the bailment relationship between plaintiffs and defendant would not have had a source outside the employment status of the defendant Healy, 133 Ill.2d at 313, 140 368, 549 N.E.2d 1240. Whatever duties arose from the relationship existed because of the status of the defendant as a professor at the University of Illinois' College of Veterinary Medicine. Defendant could only accept the bailment and the duties imposed by it solely because of his state employment. Without that employment, defendant was not authorized to practice veterinary medicine in Illinois and would not have been able to legally perform the surgery at a veterinarian hospital. See 225 ILCS 115/5 (West 2004) (Prohibiting the practice of veterinary medicine and surgery in any of its branches without a valid license to do so). Defendant was, at the time of the bailment and the surgery, a professor at the College of Veterinary Medicine of the University of Illinois. His duties as a professor consisted of performing research and training students by operating on animals in the College's large-animal clinic. Defendant was not licensed at the time to practice veterinary surgery in Illinois. He was not in private practice and did not possess a veterinary license because, as a professor at a state university, he was exempt from Illinois' licensing requirements. Defendant did not carry malpractice insurance and has not been in private practice since 1973. 5 Defendant therefore was acting in his normal and official role as a professor of at the College of Veterinary Medicine when he accepted the bailment and performed the surgery.

Ms Stephen, I am a medical doctor and from what I see in my profession, we doctors are too busy to show up at our local Medical Society Meetings until the Medical Board harshly and unfairly punishes us for some minor offense. Unfortunately, once this happens, that physician's complaints are discredited by his colleagues, because he gets lumped in with those physicians who have committed serious offenses and anyway, He must have done something wrong! I suspect the same is true for the dental profession and I believe you are right to question why we don't get involved and do something about it. Until then, these boards will independendly decide what is fair and unfair. Personal Injury includes civil wrongs and economic or non-economic damages to a person's property, reputation, or rights.

Disimilatory iron-reducing bacteria play an important role in the reduction of Fe(hydr)oxides and the production of secondary solid-iron mineral phases that can have magnetic properties. Magnetic susceptibility can therefore play an important role in identifying zones where microbial-mediated iron reduction is occurring. We investigated the magnetic susceptibility variations in a hydrocarbon-contaminated aquifer where methanogenesis and iron reduction are the main biogeochemical processes. Our objectives are to (1) determine the variability of magnetic susceptibility, (2) determine the hydrobiogeochemical controls on the magnetic susceptibility variability, and (3) evaluate the use of magnetic susceptibility as a viable technique for identifying zones where the coupling of iron and organic carbon cycling is occurring. Magnetic susceptibility data were acquired down 11 boreholes within contaminated and uncontaminated locations. We show that magnetic susceptibility values for boreholes within the free phase plume are higher than values for boreholes within the dissolved phase plume and background. Magnetic susceptibility values are highest within the zone of water table fluctuation with peaks predominantly occurring at the highest water table marks and are also coincident with high concentrations of dissolved Fe(II) and organic carbon content, suggesting that the zone of water table fluctuation is most biologically active. High magnetic susceptibility values within the vadose zone above the free phase plume are coincident with a zone of methane depletion suggesting aerobic or anaerobic oxidation of methane coupled to iron reduction. Our results suggest that magnetic susceptibility can be used as a viable tool in iron and carbon cycling studies. The statute is silent on the traditional physical damage coverages - comprehensive and collision. AICRA purports neither to amend nor to repeal the statute governing comprehensive and collision coverage. N.J.S.A. 17:29A-39, which provides that every private passenger automobile insurance policy providing collision and comprehensive coverages, issued or renewed on or after the effective date of this act January 1, 1983, shall provide a deductible in a minimum amount of $500.00 each for collision and comprehensive coverages, unless the named insured selects a lower deductible amount. L. 1983, c. 65, � 10, codified at N.J.S.A. 17:29A-39. We conclude that insurers are able, under this existing law, to offer comprehensive and collision coverage as an option to both their standard- and basic-policy customers.

The first is economic loss payable to the next of kin and the second is conscious pain and suffering, payable into the estate and ultimately colleceted by the heirs. Note: Next-of-kin and heirs are not always the same people. Medicare has, over the last few years, become rather aggressive about collecting monies advanced for medical care on account of injuries. They may attempt to advance a lien on the pain and suffering money. A lawyer should not ignore a potential medicare lien.

Our clients, a widow and three young children, were left without their sole provider after their 44-year-old husband and father sought medical care for what he believed to be a small stroke. He informed his doctor of a personal history of shortness of breath and tightness in his chest, as well as a family history of hypertension and stroke. The doctor provided no treatment other than aspirin and water pills. As the symptoms persisted and progressed in following months, the doctor ordered two separate chest X-rays, ignoring the results on both even though they suggested additional evaluation and follow-up. Documentation from the patient's final visit included symptoms such as pain in his calf and coughing up blood, but he was only instructed to continue taking aspirin. Three days later, the patient collapsed from a stroke ultimately resulting in his death.

Finley Lee, a professor at UNC, Chapel Hill, notes "nine potentially important variables" that the studies omitted. Also, larger states "influence the data to a disproportionate extent." Dr. Bernard L. Webb, a professor at Georgia State University, noted substantial technical criticism of the study, and concluded that "it is apparent that interstate comparisons upon which the studies solely rely are not reliable indicators of the cost effects of various negligence standards."

Group Health Medicare Advantage. An Indiana couple was expecting their third child. While in labor in Bloomington, Indiana, the mother began vomiting uncontrollably. The fetal heart monitor, which shows the baby's heart rate and problems with the heart rate, began showing signs of fetal distress. The fetal heart rate monitor then showed significant late decelerations (low heart rate after a contraction), fetal bradycardia (very low heart rate), and fetal tachycardia (very high heart rate). Then the fetal heart rate mysteriously became normal. The heart rate became normal because the monitor began picking up the mother's heart rate instead of the baby's, which should have been obvious to the labor and delivery nurse and the Obstetrics Doctor from merely looking at the monitor's record of the mother's heart rate. The failure of the nurse and the doctor to recognize the fetal distress and the monitor's display of the mother's heart rate led to a still birth. Case settled.
