See Baty, 543 S.W.3d at 693-94; see also Pinnacle Health Facilities XV, LP v. Robles, No. 14-15-00924-CV, 2017 WL 2698498, at *2-4 (Tex.

  2. C-HCA, Inc. v. Cornett

    635 S.W.3d 295 (Tex. App. 2021)   Cited 3 times

    Dr. Bull's amended expert report does not contain sufficient information within its four corners to (1) inform the Hospital of the specific conduct called into question and (2) provide a basis for the trial court to conclude that the Cornett Parties' claims against the Hospital have merit. SeeBaty , 543 S.W.3d at 693–94 ; Pinnacle Health Facilities XV, LP v. Robles , No. 14-15-00924-CV, 2017 WL 2698498, at *2–4 (Tex. App.—Houston [14th Dist.] Jun. 22, 2017, no pet.) (concluding that trial court erred in denying facility's motion to dismiss because export report contained no facts showing how the facility's staff breached the standard of care) (mem. op.); Kingwood Pines Hosp., LLC v. Gomez , 362 S.W.3d 740, 748–50 (Tex. App.—Houston [14th Dist.] 2011, no pet.) (concluding that trial court erred in denying hospital's motion to dismiss because export report did not adequately describe the alleged breaches of the standard of care). Under the applicable standard of review we conclude that the trial court abused its discretion in determining that as to the Hospital Dr. Bull's amended report is an objective good-faith effort to comply with the definition of an expert report provided in section 74.351(r)(6).

  3. Pinnacle Health Facilities XV, LP v. Chase

    NO. 01-18-00979-CV (Tex. App. Jul. 7, 2020)   Cited 4 times
    In Pinnacle, the defendant care center argued that the expert's report was inadequate with respect to the standard of care because the expert opined that the standard requires an "adequate fall prevention program" and a "safe environment."

    And, "without explaining the circumstances of the fall, whether side rails are even relevant cannot be determined." In support of its argument, Pinnacle asserts that the Fourteenth Court of Appeals "addressed a virtually identical scenario" in Pinnacle Health Facilities XV, LP v. Robles, No. 14-15-00924-CV, 2017 WL 2698498 (Tex. App.—Houston [14th Dist.] June 22, 2017, no pet.) (mem. op.). In Robles, a fall occurred while facility staff was transferring a patient in a lift chair.
