Description
ORIGINAL PROCEEDING IN PROHIBITION This case presents the issue of whether and to what extent sovereign immunity shields a Chapter 96 city hospital from liability
for medical malpractice. That a city enjoys immunity from liability arising from operation of a hospital is well settled.
See, e.g., Zummo v. Kansas City, 285 Mo. 222, 225 S.W. 934 (1920). We conclude that the result is no different when the hospital
is operated by a board of trustees pursuant to Chapter 96, RSMo.
