  1. Crim v. Dietrich

    2020 IL 124318 (Ill. 2020)   Cited 8 times   1 Legal Analyses
    In Crim, our supreme court ultimately determined that the question of whether a post-trial motion is necessary to preserve alleged error "turns on the question of whether the jury rendered a decision on an issue being challenged before a reviewing court."

  3. Lash v. Motwani

    Case No. 3:18-CV-01466-MAB (S.D. Ill. Mar. 31, 2021)

    In a medical malpractice claim based on the doctrine of informed consent, the plaintiff is basically contending that they agreed to a particular treatment that they would not otherwise have consented to had they known the material risks of the treatment. See Crim v. Dietrich, 67 N.E.3d 433, 438-39 (Ill. App. Ct. 2016) (to prevail on an informed consent claim, the plaintiff must prove that "(1) the physician had a duty to disclose material risks; (2) he failed to disclose or inadequately disclosed those risks; (3) as a direct and proximate result of the failure to disclose, the patient consented to treatment [he] otherwise would not have consented to; and (4) plaintiff was injured by the proposed treatment." (citing Davis v. Kraff, 937 N.E.2d 306, 314-15 (Ill. App. Ct. 2010))).

  4. Lash v. Sparta Cmty. Hosp. Dist.

    38 F.4th 540 (7th Cir. 2022)   Cited 4 times

    To prevail on an informed-consent complaint, the plaintiff must establish "(1) the physician had a duty to disclose material risks; (2) he failed to disclose or inadequately disclosed those risks; (3) as a direct and proximate result of the failure to disclose, the patient consented to treatment [he] otherwise would not have consented to; and (4) plaintiff was injured by the proposed treatment." Crim ex rel. Crim v. Dietrich , 409 Ill.Dec. 221, 67 N.E.3d 433, 438–39 (2016) (quoting Davis v. Kraff , 405 Ill.App.3d 20, 344 Ill.Dec. 600, 937 N.E.2d 306, 314–15 (2010) ). In essence, a plaintiff must "point to significant undisclosed information relating to the treatment which would have altered her decision to undergo it."

  5. Cordes v. Ctrs. for Reprod. Med. & Wellenss

    3:20-CV-10-MAB (S.D. Ill. Sep. 29, 2023)   Cited 1 times

    For example, in Crim ex rel. Crim v. Dietrich, the appellate court was tasked with determining whether the trial court erred by entering a partial directed verdict on an informed consent claim when the only “reasonable person” evidence presented was a statement from the plaintiff that she would have opted for a C-section had she known of the risk of complications that could arise from the natural delivery of a large baby. 67 N.E.3d 433, 435-36 ( Ill. App. 2016). Ultimately, the appellate court relied on Coryell and held that when dealing with issues of informed consent, the plaintiff's testimony as to what she would have done was sufficient.
