Appellate Court Decision
Delivered 3/13/19
The Appellate Court will be making a determination on multiple points that will not only determine if I have the right to a lawsuit, but may also have the potential to affect the rights of animal owners and veterinarians across the state.
Most important, being the premise TAMU asserts: (paraphrased for ease)
-
Practitioners who work at state run veterinary facilities are immune from liability in all actions of negligence or malpractice (baring use of a motor vehicle).
-
That veterinary patients are property, therefore "death" should not be recognized nor should they be held to medical law and standards in the event of injury or death due to negligence.
This premise is important. There is no other licensed medical practitioner or caregiver (of any licensing field issued) in the
State of Texas, be it private or state associated that has been awarded this special status under the law.
