Pipe v. Shepherd, PICS Case No. 16-0820 (Pa. Super. June 3, 2016) (memorandum) Dubow, J. (12 pages).
Trial court properly dismissed administratrix’ medical malpractice claims against New York doctor and hospital because, under the version of Pa.C.R.P. 1006(a.1) and 1006(c)(2) in effect at the time she filed her complaint, Bradford County was not the proper venue where there were no claims that doctor or hospital treated decedent anywhere other than in New York. Affirmed.
