The American Medical Association (AMA) today adopted new principles for health courts, special medical courts composed of judges trained in medical standards that could render more accurate decisions on whether or not medical malpractice has actually occurred.
This is probably a very good thing for doctors and a bad thing for lawyers. Personally, in a medical malpractice action, a “jury of my peers” is a group of 12 surgeons, not a group of 12 licensed California drivers.
