The child apparently sued when he was younger (or his parents did on his behalf). However, we were told the suit was dismissed. My question was, how did he get to sue again? If the original suit was dismissed without prejudice, and prescription or the statute of limitations has not run out, then he can sue (on his own) again. On the other hand, if the suit was dismissed with prejudice, he cannot sue again (a concept called res judicata -- "the thing has been adjudicated"). Joe P.

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
