Description
JOHNSON, Circuit Judge Roger Schrader (Schrader), Special Administrator of the Estate of Eileen Schrader (Eileen) appeals
from a judgment entered on a unanimous jury verdict in favor of Dr. Brian Tjarks (Tjarks) and St. Joseph Hospital (Hospital)
in a medical malpractice action. Schrader claims error resulting from a protective order granted by the trial court which
precluded the rebuttal testimony of Thomas L. Bennett, M.D., Diana Weiland, R.N., and Dan Carlson, an E.M.T. instructor and
the trial court's denial of Schrader's motion for a continuance. Schrader also appeals the trial court's refusal to have plaintiff's
lay witness read to the jury a published treatise on viral myocarditis as being contrary to SDCL 19-16-22. Notice of appeal
was filed April 8, 1993. Schrader subsequently appealed that part of an April 30, 1993 order and notice of an order on the taxation of costs in which
the trial court taxed expert witness fees and attorney travel expenses against Schrader in the total amount of $8,660.60.
Notice of appeal was filed on October 6, 1993. The two appeals were consolidated by order of this Court dated October 27,
1993. We affirm in part, reverse in part, and remand for new trial.
