California Court of Appeal

Bomersheim v. Los Angeles Gay & Lesbian Ctr., B208730

In plaintiffs' negligence suit claiming that defendant accepted a duty to provide medical care consistent with the applicable standard of care and breached that duty by negligently administering an improper dosage for syphilis, denial of plaintiff's motion to certify a class is reversed as the trial court's order is based on improper criteria and is not supported by substantial evidence, and class treatment would be a superior method of resolving the claims.
