This is usually a fairly straightforward issue, as the plaintiff and his or her physicians or other attendant medical personnel typically all reside within the state in which the allegedly negligent medical treatment took place.<\/p>\n<p>This is not always so, however. In such instances, there may be a plausible argument for jurisdiction in multiple states, or in multiple courts within a single state. Sometimes, the question is whether to file suit in state or federal court.

As a result of the wreck, the plaintiff was treated by various medical providers and was prescribed a certain medication. According to the woman&#8217;s complaint against several healthcare providers and drug manufacturers, she developed a condition known as &#8220;Stevens Johnson syndrome&#8221; as a result of the medication that she took following the car crash. The plaintiff&#8217;s prescription was allegedly filled in New York, although at least some of her medical care took place in New Jersey. She filed suit in 2014, seeking to recover money damages on several different legal theories, including medical malpractice, strict product liability, failure to warn, and breach of warranty.<\/p>\n<p> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.defranciscolaw.com\/blog\/new-york-womans-medical-malpractice-claims-against-out-of-state-medical-providers-dismissed-for-lack-of-jurisdiction\/#more-2797\" class=\"more-link\">Continue Reading \u203a<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>One of the first questions that must be dealt with in a Syracuse medical malpractice case is that of jurisdiction.
