A Broward jury has awarded more than $28.5 million to a Lauderdale Lakes man who was left in a vegetative state after undergoing a "manipulation under anesthesia" in 2008, and another $10 million to th ... e man's two daughters. Dale Whyte, 37, never woke up after going into cardiac arrest while undergoing the controversial outpatient procedure at the Atlantic Surgical Center in Pompano Beach on Dec. 4, 2008. After a monthlong trial, jurors ruled against the defendants, Dr. Thomas Rodenberg and Dr. Basil Mangra, finding them both negligent by "clear and convincing evidence," a standard of proof high enough to pose a threat to the doctors' continued ability to practice medicine in the state of Florida. A third defendant, Dr. Steven Brown, was not held responsible for what happened to Whyte. Florida voters passed a so-called "three-strikes" constitutional amendment in 2004 stripping the medical licenses of doctors who lose three malpractice cases. But such cases are typically won by proving malpractice by a "preponderance of the evidence," which means that a literal majority of the evidence favors the plaintiff. The state Legislature later passed a law requiring juries to find negligence by the higher standard of "clear and convincing evidence" to qualify as a strike. This case lasted approximately 1 month in court.
