The Saints hired OHP, so they are definitely germane players in the suit even if they may not have any direct liability or are declared defendants, at this time.

Third, the facts of the case will come out to determine whether the Saints' influence over the OHP doctors that the Saints hired was a factor in the medical malpractice of Delvin Breaux's case...

Once again, JP. What would the claim of malpractice involve? What was his injury that was a result of mistreatment? That is the point I am making. It doesn't matter what type of influence the Saints had over the medical side. There has to be actual malpractice for anything to advance. His lawyers have to show that there was a material injury that resulted from his treatment before it ever gets to any point of discovery.

That is the law, JP. Plain and simple. You can ask your malpractice lawyer friend. Who knows, he may know my wife.

PS. Oh, I have been married to a malpractice adjuster that has worked many, many hundreds of malpractice cases working hand in hand with a bank of lawyers that specialize in malpractice themselves over the past fifteen years or so all in the state of Louisiana.

I have heard more about malpractice in wind down sessions at the end of the day than you could ever imagine. So, yes, I believe I would have a better insight into malpractice litigation.

Just sayin', my friend.
