Heinrich Schueler, as Executor of the Estate of Julia Barenfanger, Deceased, and Otto Schueler…

Summary

The Supreme Court of New Jersey reversed the judgment, holding that the jury should not have been permitted to consider the alleged failure to obtain a second prothrombin test or the alleged delay in obtaining artificial‑kidney treatment, and that the complaint was deficient with respect to the plaintiff’s claim under the Death Act. The court affirmed that the pre‑operative care provided was within accepted medical practice.
