Teenager gets €3.5m over birth injuries
Cian Mangan, 14, sued the HSE through his mother Michelle of Fairfield Road, Farranree, Cork.
Dr John O’Mahony SC, for the family, told Mr Justice Brian McGovern that while liability was not conceded in the case an offer of €3.5m with costs had been made by the HSE that the family were happy with. He said that the calling of the doctor was too slow when difficulties arose at birth and the doctor should have arrived within five minutes and not 10.
