Brown v. Bowers, C-070797 (8-15-2008)

DECISION.

{¶ 1} Plaintiffs-appellants, Luekiucius and Sylvester Brown, appeal the judgment of the trial court dismissing with prejudice their medical-malpractice action against defendant-appellee, Walter T. Bowers, II, M.D.

{¶ 2} In three assignments of error, the Browns now argue that the trial court erred by (1) failing to grant summary judgment in their favor, (2) denying their motion for a continuance, and (3) dismissing their case for want of prosecution. We begin with the Browns' second and third assignments of error because they are interrelated and are dispositive of the appeal.
