An Illinois state appeals panel will let the family of a child who died in a hospital in Chicago's suburbs try again to sue the hospital, because they said a Cook County judge wrongly allowed the hospital's lawyers to tell jurors that one of the plaintiffs' medical experts had agreed to pay $230,000 to end a Medicare fraud investigation, and the judge had wrongly refused to allow the plaintiffs to withdraw testimony from another of their experts who had changed his mind to say the evidence didn't show the child died of the causes claimed in the lawsuit.
