Description
On May 12, 1999, Arlene Rittmer sued Drs. Richard Garza and Paul Vitenas, Jr. for medical negligence under the Texas Medical Liability and Insurance Improvement Act ("the Act"). Pursuant to the Act, within 180 days of filing suit, a plaintiff must either (1) furnish a statutorily sufficient expert report to counsel for each physician or healthcare provider sued, or (2) voluntarily non-suit the action against the physician or healthcare provider. On February 25, 2000, more than 180 days after the suit was filed, Dr. Garza filed a motion to dismiss for Ms. Rittmer's failure to file an expert report that complied with the Act. On March 13th, a similar motion to dismiss was filed by Dr. Vitenas. Following oral hearings on March 22, March 29, and April 24, 2000, the trial court granted both doctors' motions to dismiss with prejudice. Ms. Rittmer appeals the trial court's dismissal of her suit.
