Fletcher N. Smith, Jr., of Greenville, for petitioners.

G. Dewey Oxner, Jr. and Sally McMillan Purnell, both of Haynsworth, Marion, McKay & Guerard, of Greenville, for respondents Greenville Memorial Hospital and Greenville Hospital System.

Gregory A. Morton, Ashby W. Davis and Steven Snyder, all of Donnan, Morton & Davis, P.A., of Greenville, for respondent Dr. Donald G. Gregg.

TOAL, Justice:

These three consolidated medical malpractice actions are on appeal from an unpublished Court of Appeals decision affirming a jury verdict for the defense. Petitioners claim the Court of Appeals wrongly found an objection to a jury charge was not preserved for appellate review. We agree. Petitioners further argue that they are entitled to a new trial because the jury charge was erroneous. We disagree and find that no new trial is necessary.
