The doctor had unlimited resources at his disposal along with a natural prejudice in favor of doctors. The plaintiff lawyers and the jury should be commended. The republicans have been attacking law suits and our jury system for decades. Not a day goes by without another negative ad against law suits by the US Chamber of Commerce. Perhaps if there had been more law suits against the mortgage companies and the unscrupulous on Wall Street, we would not be in this mess. Any one who thinks you can win a frivolous law suit against a doctor in Tenn. must be smoking something. These cases are very hard to win and very expensive. Doctors win more than 90 % of the cases they try, and rarely settle. Thank God for the jury system.
