Craig v. Dearbonne

Dr. Lige B. Rushing's causation opinion that appropriate treatment would have prevented Betty Dearbonne's death lacked a factual basis and was conclusory. In addition, the expert report did not sufficiently describe what different treatment Dr. Susan Kay Craig should have provided to prevent Betty's death. Beaumont Court of Appeals, No. 09-07-587 CV.
