Carlson v. Dewey

321 N.W.2d 458, 212 Neb. 132, 1982 Neb. LEXIS 1190

Opinions

Caporale, J.

This appeal involves a medical malpractice case brought by Karen Carlson, appellant, against Drs. John L. Dewey and Wayne M. Hull. The District Court of Nebraska, Fourth Judicial District, in and for Douglas County, sustained the appellees’ demurrers and dismissed appellant’s petition. We affirm.

Except that the course of treatment in this case extended from 1955 through 1962 and that there is no claim of affirmative misrepresentation of the effect of treatment, the allegations are essentially the same as those in Colton v. Dewey, ante p. 126, 321 N.W.2d 913 (1982). This suit was filed October 15, 1981.

The rules of law which determined the resolution of Colton v. Dewey, supra, are dispositive of this case.

The trial court was correct in sustaining appellees’ demurrers and dismissing appellant’s petition.

Affirmed.
