Texas Supreme Court

Stan Praesel and Louise Herbert, Petitioners v. Raymond Johnson, M.d., Respondents

June 23, 1998967 S.W.2d 391

Summary

The Texas Supreme Court held that physicians owe no duty to third parties to warn an epileptic patient not to drive or to report the patient’s condition to state licensing authorities, reversing the Court of Appeals in part and entering judgment for the physicians; the plaintiffs therefore take nothing.
