Argued February 10, 2009

Before RUIZ, THOMPSON and OBERLY, Associate Judges.

Appellant Anne C. Lacek filed a complaint in the Superior Court against Washington Hospital Center (“the Hospital”), alleging that, while a patient at the Hospital from June 21 to July 19, 2004, she sustained injuries as a result of the Hospital’s negligence.*fn1 On October 26, 2007, the Superior Court granted the Hospital’s motion to dismiss the complaint for lack of subject matter jurisdiction, finding that Lacek filed suit without first having given the Hospital the 90-day notice required by the Medical Malpractice Amendment Act of 2006 (“the Act”). We affirm the trial court’s order.
