An intermediate New York appeals court remitted negligence claims over allegedly improperly stored embryos to the trial court on Thursday, but upheld a decision finding no medical malpractice had occurred.

Plaintiffs Dana Bledsoe and Nicholas McKee filed their lawsuit in 2011, following two failed in vitro fertilization procedures at Yale University in 2010. They are represented by Matthew Gaier and John Cagney of Kramer, Dillof, Livingston & Moore.
