RUCKER, Justice.

This medical malpractice action involving a disabled child has generated three appellate court opinions, an emergency stay and hearing in the Court of Appeals, and an original action in this Court. In this ongoing litigation we hold today that Article I, Section 20 of the Indiana Constitution, which provides that “[i]n all civil cases, the right of trial by jury shall remain inviolate,” Ind. Const, art. I, § 20, includes the ancillary right to be present in the courtroom during both the liability and damage phase of trial.
