CIVIL ACTION

No. 14-6674

ORDER
AND NOW, this

9th

day of May, 2017, upon consideration of the Post-Trial

Motion for Remittitur, or in the Alternative, a New Trial on Damages by Defendants Tuan A. Le,
M.D. and Doylestown Women’s Health Center (Doc. No. 123), and Plaintiff’s Response to Post
Trial Motion for Remittitur, or in the Alternative, a New Trial on Damages by Defendants Tuan
A. Le, M.D. and Doylestown Women’s Health Center, LLC, it is hereby ORDERED that the
Post-Trial Motion is DENIED.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the unopposed Petition for Delay Damages of
Plaintiff, Natisha Almeida, Pursuant to Pa. R.C. P. 238 (Doc. No. 118) is GRANTED. 1 It is
ORDERED and DECREED that the verdict of the jury rendered on March 17, 2017, and
entered by this Honorable Court into Judgment in the amount of Six Hundred and Twenty-Five
Thousand Dollars ($625,000.00) on behalf of Plaintiff, Natisha Almeida, and against Defendant,
1

The Petition for Delay Damages includes Bruce Robinson as Plaintiff; however, he was dismissed as a party and
his name was removed from the caption with prejudice on March 22, 2017. (See Doc. No. 120) Due to the
aforementioned, we have excluded Bruce Robinson from our Order. Additionally, the proposed Order regarding the
Petition for Delay Damages provided by Plaintiff, Natisha Almeida, fails to include Doylestown Women’s Health
Center, LLC, which we have added to our Order.

Tuan A. Le, M.D., and Doylestown Women’s Health Center, LLC, be molded to reflect the
addition of delay damages in the sum of Thirty Six Thousand, Nine Hundred Ninety Nine
Dollars and Thirteen Cents ($36,999.13) for a total verdict of Six Hundred and Sixty One
Thousand Nine Hundred and Ninety Nine Dollars and Thirteen Cents ($661,999.13).

BY THE COURT:
