Bybee v. Gorman
Annotate this CaseThis appeal stemmed from a medical malpractice claim brought by Scott and Meri Bybee against Dr. Patrick Gorman. The district court granted Dr. Gorman's motion for summary judgment after concluding that the Bybees' medical expert had failed to show adequate familiarity with the applicable standard of health care practice in the relevant community as required by Idaho Code sections 6-1012 and 6-1013, rendering his opinion inadmissible. Finding that the trial court erred by that decision, the Supreme Court vacated the judgment and remanded the case for further proceedings.
