Date Filed Document Text
December 12, 2016 Opinion or Order Filing 262 ORDER ON MOTION FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT entered by Chief Judge James E. Shadid on 12/12/16. J.L.'s medical conditions and injuries are tragic, and the Court is not unsympathetic to the suffering that J.L., her father, and her mother have endured as a result. However, the Courts sympathy cannot change the law or the facts established in this record by admissible evidence to achieve a more compassionate result. The actions of the Kankakee Defendants were reasonable given what they knew at the ti me, and there is nothing in the record to indicate that they had any reason to foresee that White's placenta would abruptly detach and deprive the unborn child of oxygen. For the reasons set forth above, the Kankakee Defendants' Motion for Summary Judgment 234 is GRANTED. This matter is now terminated, and all existing deadlines are vacated. SEE FULL WRITTEN ORDER.
