Inland superior courts ruling roundup, Jan. 25

Medical Malpractice: Riverside Superior Judge Harold Hopp granted a demurrer (Riches V. Banning Medical Services|RIC2002047)
- Rebecca Riches sued Banning Medical Services, San Gorgonio Memorial Hospital, three doctors, three registered nurses and two others for medical malpractice. One of the nurses, Xochitl Garcia, moved to dismiss the case. The court did so, because San Gorgonio Memorial Hospital, which employs Garcia, was adjudicated to not be liable, and because Riches cited no authority to overrule the demurrer. Riches was granted 10 days to amend her complaint.
Personal Injury: Riverside Superior Judge Angel Bermudez partially granted a demurrer (Barnhart V. Renova Spa|CVSW2206071)
- The plaintiff, Fiona Barnhart, sued a spa and its employees for having a negative reaction to a cosmetic procedure she underwent there.
