Also this week, Law360’s senior reporter in Florida Carolina Bolado stops by discuss the strange and tragic medical malpractice case at the center of Netflix’s documentary, “Take Care of Maya,” in which a jury awarded more than $260 million in damages to the family of a young patient after finding that a hospital mistreated her and forced her mother to commit suicide. Finally, some news on a bevy of stories in legal fiction, from the big screen, to the small screen, to the stage!
