Moore v. Sutherland

OPINION

Opinion by

Justice CORNELIUS (Retired).

Rosemary Moore, Individually and on behalf of the Estate of Heather Moore, deceased, appeals from the dismissal of her medical malpractice suit against Mark E. Sutherland, M.D. and Collom & Carney Clinic Association (the Clinic). In two points of error, Moore contends that the trial court abused its discretion: (1) by dismissing her claim for failing to file an expert report complying with the requirements of Tbx.Rev.Civ. Stat. Ann art. 4590i, § 13.01 (Vernon Supp.2003); and (2) by denying her request for a thirty-day extension to file a new report.
