The plaintiff, an inmate, brought an action against the Crown and two physicians alleging negligence and medical malpractice resulting in the amputation of his leg.
The defendants moved for summary judgment.
The court granted the motions, finding no genuine issue requiring a trial.
The plaintiff failed to adduce expert medical evidence to support the malpractice claims against the physicians.
The claims against the Crown were dismissed as there was no evidence of the alleged workplace injury, the claims were statute-barred under the Limitations Act, 2002, and the Crown was not vicariously liable for the independent contractor physicians.
