Description
This libel action was commenced by appellees decedent, Nizar N. Oweida, M.D. (hereinafter "appellee"), following publication in the Sunday Tribune-Review and The Sunday Tribune, two newspapers of general circulation in Westmoreland County, of essentially identical articles reporting that serious charges of medical malpractice had been set forth in a civil complaint filed against Dr. Oweida by his former patient, Bonnie Filabaum, and her husband. Dr. Oweida sought compensatory and punitive damages from appellants based upon their respective roles in publishing the articles, which appellee maintained were false, defamatory and beyond the scope of the fair report privilege.
