Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Charles H. Clark, Tyler, for Petitioners.

Roger S. Lenox, Ben Taylor, Jonathan B. Skidmore, Walter A. Herring, Dallas, for Respondents.


PER CURIAM.

This case presents the question of whether presuit notice to a hospital tolls the statute of limitations with respect to a former owner of the hospital under section 4.01 of the Medical Liability and Insurance Improvement Act. TEX.REV.CIV.STAT.ANN. art. 4590i, § 4.01(c). Because we conclude under the facts of this case that the notice was sufficient, we reverse the judgment of the court of appeals, 892 S.W.2d 440
