LivaNova Hid Evidence in Fatal Surgery Case | Kansas City News
Description
A Navy veteran’s family is getting a second chance at justice after a judge rules LivaNova, the maker of a heart surgery device, illegally hid over 12,000 pages of evidence that could have changed the outcome of their $7 million wrongful death trial. The judge has already slapped sanctions on the company and is now considering ordering a brand-new trial — far beyond what the family originally requested — while also weighing punitive damages and potentially invalidating LivaNova’s defense that the hospital was to blame. This case underscores how critical transparency is when lives are at stake — and how hiding evidence can lead to consequences far worse than anyone imagined.
