Larkin v. Boyle

Opinion

ORDER

PER CURIAM:

Appellants Jodicy Larkin and Shana Larkin filed a medical malpractice action against Respondents Maureen Boyle, M.D. and St Joseph Ob-Gyn, Inc., arising out of injuries Jodicy Larkin sustained during her delivery. The jury returned a defense verdict. The Larkins appeal, asserting five Points Relied On which challenge certain of the trial court’s evidentiary rulings, and the court’s refusal to declare a mistrial in response to improper comments by defense counsel in opening statement. After a careful review of the record we find no prejudicial error which would warrant a new trial, and accordingly affirm. Because a published opinion would have no prece-dential value, a memorandum setting forth the reasons for this order has been provided to the parties. Rule 84.16(b).
