Description

The parents of Terry Trahan filed this action to recover damages under La. Civ. Code art. 2315.6 for their mental anguish and emotional distress resulting from their sons injury and death. The principal issues are (1) whether this action falls within the limitations of the Medical Malpractice Act, and (2) whether "bystander damages" are recoverable when the "event" observed by the plaintiffs that allegedly caused their mental anguish was the negligent omission of the doctor who failed to treat their son in the hospital emergency room for serious injuries sustained in an automobile accident.
