November 19, 2020 Filing 29 Case transferred in from District of Alabama Northern; Case Number 5:20-cv-01257. Original file copy of transfer order and docket sheet received.
November 18, 2020 Opinion or Order Filing 28 ORDER Transferring Case to MDL: ORDER of Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation transferring this case to the District of Indiana Southern for inclusion in MDL; certified copy of docket entries and documents requested by transferee clerk electronically transferred to Clerk of Court in District of Indiana Southern. (KEK) [Transferred from Alabama Northern on 11/19/2020.]
October 13, 2020 Opinion or Order Filing 27 ORDER granting in part and denying in part #13 Motion to Stay. Per Doc. 26, the Court denies Cook Medical's motion to stay as to Ms. Stephens's motion to remand, but the Court otherwise grants the motion to stay. This action is stayed pending possible transfer to MDL 2570. Signed by Judge Madeline Hughes Haikala on October 13, 2020. (Haikala, Madeline) [Transferred from Alabama Northern on 11/19/2020.]
October 13, 2020 Opinion or Order Filing 26 ORDER denying #9 Motion to Remand. Consistent with the discussion on the record during the October 13, 2020 telephone conference in this matter, the Court has considered Ms. Stephens's motion to remand (Doc. #9 ) and Cook Medical's motion to stay pending possible transfer to MDL 2570. (Doc. #13 ). Applying the analysis set forth in Poarch Band of Creek Indians v. Amneal Pharm., 2020 WL 3833009 (S.D. Ala. July 7, 2020), the Court denies Cook Medical's motion to stay as it pertains to Ms. Stephens's motion to remand because the viability of her claim against Huntsville Hospital, the resident defendant, turns on a unique question of Alabama law that is not likely to be raised in other actions transferred to the MDL. 2020 WL 3833009 at *4. As to that question of Alabama law, the Court finds, based on the face of the complaint, that Ms. Stephens's breach of warranty claim against Huntsville Hospital is subject to the limitations provisions of 6-5-482 of the Alabama Medical Liability Act. "The AMLA applies '[i]n any action for injury or damages or wrongful death, whether in contract or in tort, against a health care provider for breach of the standard of care.' 6-5-548, Ala. Code 1975." Ex parte Tombigbee Healthcare Authority, 260 So. 3d 1, 4 (Ala. 2017). The harm that Ms. Stephens attributes to Huntsville Hospital -- the selection of the Gunther Tulip Vena Cava Filter which the hospital allegedly sold to Ms. Stephens (Doc. [1-1], p. 13) -- is, for purposes of the AMLA, a "harm caused by the provision of medical services." Tombigbee Healthcare Authority, 260 So. 3d at 5 (quoting Ex parte Vanderwall, 201 So. 3d 525, 537 (Ala. 2015) (emphasis omitted)). Therefore, per Mobile Infirmary v. Delchamps, 642 So. 2d 954 (Ala. 1994), 6-5-482's two-year statute of limitations governs Ms. Stephens's breach of warranty claims against Huntsville Hospital. 642 So. 2d at 957. Ms. Stephens alleges that Huntsville Hospital sold her the allegedly defective vena cava filter in June 2014. If that act triggers the two-year statute of limitations under 6-5-482(a), then Ms. Stephens's July 2020 breach of warranty claim against Huntsville Hospital is four years too late. If the Court applies 6-5-482(a)'s discovery rule, then the AMLA's statute of limitations extends to four years after the act complained of, meaning that Ms. Stephens's warranty claim against the hospital expired in June 2018. And if the Court counts two years from the accrual date under Mobile Infirmary, 642 So. 2d at 958, then the two years began to run, at the latest, on February 3, 2017, (Doc. [1-1], p. 14), so that the two-year period expired in February 2019, more than a year before Ms. Stephens filed her complaint. On the face of the complaint, under Alabama law, there is no doubt that Ms. Stephens's breach of warranty claim against Huntsville Hospital fails as a matter of law because it is time-barred. Therefore, Ms. Stephens's expired warranty claim against the local defendant is not properly joined with her product liability claim against Cook Medical. The Court dismisses the warranty claim against Huntsville Hospital and denies Ms. Stephens's motion to remand. Signed by Judge Madeline Hughes Haikala on October 13, 2020.
