Docket entry
040389 Hinkley v. Koehler 01/14/2005 In a medical malpractice action, the circuit court erred in concluding that one of the defendants' witnesses was qualified under Code § 8.01-581.20(A) to give expert testimony with regard to the standard of care because this witness had not had an active clinical practice in the defendant doctors' specialty or a related field within one year of the alleged negligence. Because this error was not harmless, the judgment of the circuit court is reversed and the case remanded for a new trial.
