(October 2, 2018, 9:57 AM EDT) -- CHICAGO — A trial court’s decision to grant a new trial in a lawsuit accusing a nursing home doctor of negligence in her care and treatment of a resident based on closing arguments where the defendant’s attorney asked the jury to place themselves in the doctor’s shoes was not improper, an Illinois appellate panel ruled Sept. 28, holding that the decision did not exceed “the bounds of reason or was illogical” despite its “finding that the trial court ascribed too much prejudice to the technically improper golden rule argument” (Mary Sikora v. Nirali R. Parikh, M.D., et al., No. 14 L 8881, Ill. App., 1st Dist., 4th Div., 2018 Ill. App. LEXIS 711)....
