Was recently quoted in an nationally circulated article entitled "Pa. Mental Health Rejection Suits Could Rise, Atty Says" by Y. Peter Kang that appeared in the national online publication of Law360.
The article reviewed a recent Pennsylvania Supreme Court decision in the case of Matos v. Geisinger Medical Center in which that Court addressed the extent to which an injured party may pursue a medical malpractice claim against medical providers who rebuffed an individual who wished to voluntarily submit themselves for mental health treatment who then thereafter end up injuring another person or themselves.
The article is not freely accessible online. To the extent you may wish to read a portion of the article please do not hesitate to contact me at dancummins@cumminslaw.net.
The Tort Talk write up of this decision is forthcoming.
