Estate of Maddison Alexis Desela, a Protected Person, Plaintiff/appellant v. Prescott Unified School District No…

Summary

The court held that both an injured minor and the minor's parents may recover premajority medical expenses, subject to a prohibition on double recovery. It overruled the prior common-law rule assigning that claim exclusively to parents and concluded that the minor's action was timely under the applicable disability and public-entity limitation statutes. The court vacated the court of appeals' opinion, reversed the superior court's dismissal, and remanded for further proceedings.
