Cantrell v. Moore

VERDICT

Trial
08/15/17 – 08/23/17

Summary

An Atlanta-area obstetrician was cleared of responsibility for the childbirth-related shoulder injury that has left a girl without the use of her right arm.

A DeKalb County State Court jury found Dr. Brad Moore did not cause the brachial plexus injury Emma Cantrell suffered during her birth in November 2006. Cantrell suffered the injury, which damaged nerves leading from her shoulder to her spine, leaving her right arm functionless, after her shoulder became stuck during a vacuum-assisted delivery.
