Dewayne Sharkey v. Molly O'Toole, M.D.

Case Number
M2009-01112-COA-R3-CV

An inmate appeals a summary judgment dismissing his medical malpractice and 42 U.S.C._ 1983 claims against the correctional facility's psychiatrist. Since the defendant's doctor negated essential elements of both claims with her expert affidavit and plaintiff failed to create a genuine issue of material fact, the trial court is affirmed.
