Before the case can proceed to a lawsuit in Massachusetts
the case must first be presented to a Medical Malpractice
Tribunal, consisting under Statute of three members who
will review the claim to determine if there is enough merit for
the case to proceed in court. If the case passes the tribunal, it
then proceeds to a Superior Court Jury trial. See the Time
