Description

Respondent Stewart Lindberg, as trustee for the heirs of Lukas Stewart Lindberg, commenced this medical malpractice action against appellants Health Partners, Inc., Group Health Plan, Inc., Sharon Nichols, Donne Mathiowitz, Dr. Ann L. Megas, and GeorgeAnne Del Giudice alleging negligence in failing to instruct his pregnant wife Debra Lindberg to be seen immediately by a physician for examination and treatment and that the alleged negligence caused the stillbirth of Lukas Stewart Lindberg, the decedent. The district court granted summary judgment in favor of the respondents because Lindbergs September 1996 affidavit of expert identification failed to meet the requirements of Minn. Stat. Â§145.682 (1998) and there was no showing of excusable neglect to warrant an extension of the statutory deadline to permit consideration of his October 1997 supplemental affidavit. The court of appeals reversed and remanded. We granted review to once again address the strict statutory requirements of Minn. Stat. Â§145.682.
