California Court of Appeal

In medical malpractice suit arising from injuries plaintiff sustained when defendants failed to promptly diagnose and treat an injury to his spinal cord, summary judgment for defendant doctor is reversed as plaintiff's expert witness's declaration opposing summary judgment was improperly excluded from evidence, and the declaration established triable issues of material fact as to whether defendant breached the standard of care and causation.
