Abstract
It was an overwhelming, 12-0 verdict - a jury's unanimous rejection of a negligence case against a Laredo physician. Then, a judge took that decision away and ordered a new trial - not because of jury misconduct, or any procedural stumble that usually negates a court decision. It was taken away, essentially, because the judge said so.
