Description
Che Kelly, by her next friend, and her mother, Vera Kelly, brought a medical malpractice action against Darwin Jackson, M.D.,
and Jonathan R. Reed, OB/GYN Services, Inc., for injuries sustained by Che Kelly during her birth. The court entered a verdict
for defendants. The court of appeals reversed and remanded, finding that the trial court committed reversible error when it
denied plaintiffs' counsel the opportunity to argue an adverse inference from defendants' failure to call a witness. This
Court granted transfer. The judgment of the trial court is affirmed. Vera Kelly was first referred to Dr. Jonathan Reed in December of 1983. He examined her and fixed her expected delivery date
at June 23, 1984. Vera Kelly made several prenatal visits to Dr. Reed's office. Dr. Reed usually attended to Vera Kelly, but
on two occasions his associate, Dr. Jackson, saw her instead.
