Description

OPINION Nancy Traut appeals from a summary judgment granted in favor of William Beaty, M.D. Traut sued Beaty, 1 alleging negligence and negligence based on res ipsa loquitur when part of a wire, about one centimeter long, was left in Traut's left breast after Beaty performed a hook-wire needle localization procedure on her. 2 Sometime later, Beaty filed a motion for sanctions under Tex. Rev. Civ. Stat. Ann. art. 4590i, § 13.01 (Vernon Supp. 2002), contending that Traut failed to file the expert report required by the statute. The trial court ordered Traut's cause of action for negligence dismissed with prejudice and ordered Traut to produce an expert report within 120 days.
