Scottland Lawsuit Dismissed!

Fightnews.com is reporting that a lawsuit filed by Denise Scottland, the widow of super middleweight Beethavean Scottland, in a Manhattan, NY court was dismissed.

Denise Scottland's lawsuit was against ringside physicians Rufus Sadler and Gerard Varlotta and charged negligent practices. A Manhattan judge ruled that the correct allegations against the doctors was not negligence, but malpractice.

However, the 30-month statute of limitations had passed on the lawsuit and so the case was dismissed.
