The Associated Press reported on January 5, 2010, that a West Virginia mother has filed a wrongful death lawsuit against a doctor, his medical practice, and the manufacturer of the filing cabinet.
Her 17 year old daughter was found, dead, pinned between a five-drawer filing cabinet and a Jeep, in a storage building where she had been filing papers.
The suit accuses the doctor, who happens to be president of the state Board of Medicine, of failing to provide a safe and non-hazardous work environment.
