Description

The plaintiff-appellee here brought suit for personal injury against the City of Miami, a municipal corporation, referred to as the defendant, charging in substance that on April 22, 1944, while a paying patient at the Jackson Memorial Hospital, which was being operated by the City of Miami, a municipal corporation, in a proprietary capacity, she received an overdose of x-ray therapy treatment for the removal of plantar warts from her left heel, which caused her subsequent injury and for which she seeks damages. It was alleged that the cause of her injury was the carelessness and negligence of the defendants employees, or agents, in administering a sufficient amount of x-ray treatment, thereby causing her left heel to be burned, and that it was in the middle of August, 1949, when the plaintiff was advised and first became aware that her heel had been injured by the x-ray therapy treatment received in April, 1944; that previously there had been no indication that the plaintiffs left heel had been burned by the x-ray treatment, but gave every appearance of being healthy and in good condition; that it was about the middle of May, 1949, when a sore began to develop on the plaintiffs heel, which slowly turned into an ulcer, and that the plaintiff, on September 2, 1949, gave notice to the city, through her attorneys, of her claim. This suit was filed in the circuit court on May 11, 1950. That the x-ray treatment was the cause of injury was admitted by the defendant, the defenses being, first, that the plaintiffs claim was barred by the statutes of limitations; second, that she failed to serve upon the City of Miami written notice of her claim within sixty days after receiving the injury alleged, as required by the city charter; and third, that the plaintiffs injury was not due to the carelessness or neglect of any of its employees or agents.
