Congratulations to attorneys Matthew D. Murphy and Roger A. Sudbeck for winning their case for the Defendant at the South Dakota Supreme Court on December 20, 2017. 

The lawsuit was captioned BASIL O’DAY and TRACY MCCLURE, as Guardians Ad Litem for N.W.O., v. STEPHEN NANTON, M.D.  It involved a claim against the Defendant, a pediatric gastroenterologist, alleging that he committed medical malpractice in prescribing a certain prescription drug to treat N.W.O.

Roger and Matthew represented the Defendant and won at the jury trial in June of 2016.  On the appeal, the South Dakota Supreme Court affirmed the jury’s verdict after rejecting the Plaintiffs’ appellate challenges concerning expert testimony and the jury instructions from trial.
