No.. never missed it and it's valid, tho depends on each case. And who is going to be the decider of frivolous?

Agree, in particular areas (eg birth) the numbers of cases is crazy. Flipside is there are a fair number of cases where there is blatant incompetence/negligence and having laws stuffed into this area can create gross injustice.

This is only one area why healthcare in the US is a problem - tho it's still good, but that prob relies on the docs and nursing staff more than the system.
