Dominguez v. Lindberg
Appellant Karen M. Dominguez (Dominguez) is an operating room technician. She was injured when a patient fell on her. She sued respondent Cameron Eugene Lindberg, M.D. (Dr. Lindberg) alleging that he caused the patient to fall when he negligently unstrapped her from a surgical platform following surgery. She appeals from the order granting Dr. Lindberg's motion for judgment on the pleadings contending that the trial court erred when it applied the one-year statute of limitations applicable to professional negligence of a health care provider. (Code Civ. Proc., 340.5.)[1] She contends that the action was for general negligence subject to the two year statute of limitations. ( 335.1.) Court affirm.
