SDNY COURTHOUSE,
Feb 25 – Jose Sanchez
went to Urban Health Plan at
1065 Southern Boulevard in The
Bronx in October 2017 and
instead of Lamisil for fungus
on a nail was given a
prescription for the epilepsy
drug Lamotrigine.
He was
hospitalized for seven day and
has now moved to the Dominican
Republic.
On February 25
U.S. District Court for the
Southern District of New York
Magistrate Judge Ona T. Wang
held a proceeding. Inner City
Press covered it.
The
plaintiff's lawyer stated
several times that he is
moving offices and has
everything packed up.
The US, defending
the case, said it will want to
depose Sanchez to get a letter
sense of his injuries, given
that the only painkiller he
used was aspirin.
The case is
Sanchez v. US, 20-cv-6535
(Wang)
