Ed McMahon has settled a medical malpractice lawsuit with Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, over the hospital’s treatment of neck injuries the entertainer suffered after a fall at a friend’s home in 2007.
The longtime sidekick of Johnny Carson on NBC’s “The Tonight Show” was injured in March of 2007 when he fell and broke his neck at the home of investor Robert Day, according to Reuters.
McMahon had alleged that Cedars-Sinai Medical Center failed to properly diagnose his broken neck, sent him home without taking any X-rays, and botched two operations on the entertainer’s spine, Reuters reports: “The veteran TV announcer said the resulting discomfort and pain left him unable to work for many months.”
Although the circumstances of McMahon’s fall are not public, presumably his premises liability claim accuses Day of being negligent in maintaining his property, and failing to take reasonable steps to avoid hazards and risks to people visiting his home, causing McMahon to fall and suffer injuries.
