UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
WESTERN DISTRICT OF KENTUCKY
AT LOUISVILLE
CIVIL ACTION NO. 3:15-cv-00397-TBR
ESTATE OF DOROTHY FAYE LANHAM

PLAINTIFF

v.
SPRINGFIELD NURSING & REHABILITATION CENTER

DEFENDANT

MEMORANDUM OPINION AND ORDER
This matter comes before the Court upon two motions filed by Defendant Springfield
Nursing and Rehabilitation Center (“Defendant”). First, Defendant has filed a Motion to Strike
Expert Witness Disclosure. [DN 66.] Second, Defendant has filed a Motion for Summary
Judgment. [DN 67.] These motions are the result of revelations that the expert whose testimony
Plaintiff had planned to rely on, Dr. Michael Langan, currently has a suspended medical license.
However, before the Court had occasion to rule on the above motions, Plaintiff notified the Court
and Defendant that Dr. Langan would no longer be relied upon as an expert, and Plaintiff has
since filed a new expert witness disclosure. Due to this fact, Defendant’s Motion to Strike [DN
66] and Defendant’s Motion for Summary Judgment [DN 67] are both hereby DISMISSED AS
MOOT.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
