Baldino v. Castagna

OPINION

McDermott, justice.

This appeal is from an Order of the Superior Court, 308 Pa.Super. 506, 454 A.2d 1012, reversing the Court of Common Pleas of Philadelphia, which had denied the motion for a new trial of the plaintiffs, appellees herein. We reverse.

Plaintiffs initiated this negligence action in May, 1975, against Armand Castagna, M.D., and CIBA-GEIGY Corporation. On January 16, 1976, Dr. Castagna joined Morris Park Pharmacy as an additional defendant. After a three week jury trial the jury returned a verdict against Dr. Castagna, 1 and in favor of Morris Park Pharmacy and CIBA-GEIGY. 2
