Practice Areas

The focus in this appeal is in respect of the liability of the respondent; the other defendants at the High Court are not parties to this appeal. Aside from Question 6 which deals with the calculation of damages, all the other questions pertain to the issue of whether a private hospital may be liable for the tort of a medical practitioner who is said to be an independent contractor. In short, whether such an entity itself owes an independent duty which is non-delegable, regardless to whom it may have delegated that duty to, irrespective who may have performed the act or omission complained of, whether under a contract for service or due to the patient’s own choice. 1
