STEPHENSON, Senior Justice.

In this appeal from a judgment in a medical-malpractice action, we determine whether the trial court erred in: (1) admitting into evidence the opinion of a Medical Malpractice Review Panel (the Panel) and the testimony of two Panel members thereon when the Panel's decision was rendered beyond the timeframe set forth in Code § 8.01-581.7:1; (2) permitting testimony from two Panel members as the defendants' retained experts after they had rendered a Panel opinion in the defendants' favor; (3) granting jury instructions on the issue of contributory negligence; (4)…
