The Cedars lawsuit ended with the jury awarding the 5-year-old victim $7.4 million. As a month-old infant, the victim who was hospitalized at Cedars-Sinai Los Angeles allegedly showed signs of infection but was not treated in a timely manner by the doctors in the neonatal unit, even though her physician mother questioned the actions of the staff. Failure to give the baby antibiotics promptly resulted in her getting meningitis, causing permanent brain damage. The child now requires ongoing care including physical therapy, behavioral therapy and maintenance of a drainage shunt implanted in her brain.
