Summary

The Alabama Supreme Court reversed the trial court's judgment for the plaintiff, holding that the plaintiff failed to present substantial evidence that the decedent's death was caused by sepsis from an infected pressure ulcer, and that the expert testimony was speculative and unsupported. The Court remanded for entry of judgment as a matter of law in favor of the defendants.
