Description

1 The petitioner, a plaintiff in a medical malpractice action, challenges the constitutionality of the three-year proviso in 76 O.S. 1981 ? 18 which limits the scope of recoverable damages when an action is brought more than three years from the date of the injury. She asserts that ? 18 violates [1] the Equal Protection Clause of the U.S. Constitution by penalizing only victims of health care providers malpractice without a corresponding penalty for victims of other tortfeasors; [2] Oklahomas constitutional prohibition against special laws limiting civil actions, Art. 5, ? 46 , by creating a limitation period which protects a special class of tortfeasors; [3] Oklahomas constitutional prohibition against granting exclusive rights, privileges or immunities, Art. 5, ? 51 , by granting immunity from suit to the health care profession for certain types of damages; and [4] Oklahomas constitutional prohibition against the limitation of amounts recoverable for injuries resulting in death, Art. 23 ? 7.
