Drinkard-Nuckols v. Andrews

KINSER, Justice.

In this medical malpractice action, the plaintiff objected to the introduction of evidence concerning what the defendant doctors expected from other physicians with regard to the handling and communication of the interpretation of an x-ray, thereby suggesting that physicians other than the defendants were negligent. Because the plaintiff presented testimony on the same subject in her case-in-chief, her objection is waived and the circuit court's admission of such evidence cannot be grounds for reversal. Thus, we will affirm the judgment of the circuit court.
