Kristin WILKINS et al. v. CONNECTICUT CHILDBIRTH AND WOMEN'S CENTER et al.

Carey B. Reilly, Bridgeport, in support of the petition.

The plaintiffs' petition for certification for appeal from the Appellate Court, 135 Conn.App. 679, 42 A.3d 521, is granted, limited to the following issue:

“Did the Appellate Court properly determine that, in this action against institutional defendants, General Statutes (Rev. to 2007) § 52–190a (a) required that the ‘similar health care provider’ opinion letter be authored by a person trained and experienced in nurse midwifery or nursing, instead of being written by a board certified obstetrician and gynecologist?”
