Former State Sen. Bryan Taylor, a candidate for chief justice of the Alabama Supreme Court, disagreed with a recent court ruling upholding a jury’s record-breaking award in a malpractice case.
Taylor (R-Prattville) is seeking the position of retiring Chief Justice Tom Parker.
In the malpractice case, a doctor at Springhill Memorial Hospital in Mobile made an error that resulted in the death of Jay West.
Taylor’s contention in the wrongful death case was not about the facts but, rather, the $10 million award.
