Galloway’s healthcare liability defense team secured a favorable outcome on behalf of our clients when a state court dismissed a negligence lawsuit alleging improper care during ambulance transport for failure to prosecute. Mark “Tiger” Pharr and Parker Smith led the Firm’s effort, and the result highlights our strategic motion practice, efficient litigation management, and commitment to protecting our healthcare clients in Texas.
Ambulance Care Lawsuit Dismissed for Failure to Prosecute
In this case, the Plaintiff alleged negligent care in the back of an ambulance. After the claimant failed to advance the lawsuit for more than five years, Pharr and Smith moved to dismiss the case for failure to prosecute. The Galloway team built a clear record of the plaintiff’s prolonged inactivity, presented a focused motion grounded in procedural rules, and filed a targeted reply addressing the opposition.
With the court granting the motion, the dismissal brings finality for Galloway’s client while avoiding the costs and risks of protracted litigation.
