The defendants brought a motion to strike the jury notice in a medical negligence action involving an aeromedical transport.
The plaintiffs alleged the defendants' negligence caused a sciatic nerve injury resulting in the amputation of the plaintiff's leg.
The defendants argued the case was too complex for a jury due to the number of experts, conflicting opinions on the standard of care, and pre-existing conditions.
The court dismissed the motion, adopting a 'wait and see' approach, finding that it was premature to strike the jury notice before a trial date was set and the actual contested issues were narrowed.
