Oak Park, Inc. v. Harrison

Oak Park, Inc., Individually and d/b/a Desert Springs Medical Center brings this interlocutory appeal from an order denying its motion to dismiss James Harrisons suit for failure to file an expert report under Section 74.351 of the Texas Civil Practice and Remedies Code. TEX. CIV. PRAC. & REM. CODE ANN. § 74.351 (Vernon Supp. 2006). The sole issue on appeal is whether Harrisons claims against Desert Springs are health care liability claims under the Texas Medical Liability and Insurance Improvement Act set forth in TEX. CIV. PRAC. & REM. CODE ANN. ch. 74 (Vernon 2005 & Supp. 2006). Because we conclude that Harrisons claims are health care liability claims, we reverse and render.
