Docket entry

952317 Lee v. Bourgeois 11/01/1996 Because the function of a particular physician at a state medical school was related to patient care and the acts taken were within the professional medical judgment of the physician, the state's interest and degree of involvement were slight and the physician is not entitled to sovereign immunity for the alleged negligent acts raised in this action. Accordingly, the judgment of the trial court is reversed and the case remanded for further proceedings.
