Court Denies Hospital's Summary Judgment Motion in Child Sex Abuse CaseOn April 1, 2011, Judge Dan Shaban denied the crucial portions of St. Francis Hospital's Motion for Summary Judgment in the St. Francis Hospital Child Sex Abuse Case. Accordingly, the first of ninety-three separate jury trials will now commence on April 5, 2011. Kenny, O'Keefe & Usseglio, P.C. has represented over sixty-five plaintiffs in this case.
"Although we do not completely agree with every aspect of the judge's decision, it is obviously well reasoned and well researched. The decision will give these people a fair opportunity to tell their stories to the separate juries in an effort to hold this institution accountable for failing to meet its obligations to their child research subjects." Tim O'Keefe, Kenny, O'Keefe & Usseglio, P.C.
