Doe v. Dynamic Physical Therapy, LLC

Docket No.25-180
Op. BelowLa.

Holding

Because a state lacks the power to confer immunity from federal causes of action, the Louisiana Court of Appeal’s judgment that a plaintiff’s federal claims are barred by a Louisiana statute immunizing health care providers from civil liability during public health emergencies is reversed.

Judgment

Reversed and remanded, 9-0 on Dec 8, 2025.
