The Ho High Court has fined Central Aflao Hospital GH$5,000. This fine is for delayed action in a medical negligence case.
The court ordered the hospital to pay the costs because it tried to change its defence documents too late. The case is ongoing.
The lawsuit was filed by the family of Linda Adua. She was a caterer who has since passed away.
Justice Rosemarie Afua Asante presided over the case at the Ho High Court. The court's decision involved the late amendment to the hospital's statement of defence.
