"The city's medical examiner found she died of brain damage due to lack of oxygen after she stopped breathing during an endoscopy days earlier.
The federal Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services cited the clinic for failing to identify deteriorating vital signs and provide timely intervention. The clinic could lose its Medicare accreditation."
This.^^^^^^^
Especially"failing to identify deterioratin vital signs".
For those who think it's all about $$, what else would be the compensation? What she does with her award (they will probably settle out of court, imo) is her business.
It was her mom - can anybody give the woman a break already?

What Melissa would want as compensation is impossible: her mother back with her alive and well. The Rivers family has been involved in all kinds of charity work. I would assume that any monetary gain would be donated to one of those. Melissa and her son have Joan's entire estate. Most of us understand exactly why this lawsuit HAS to proceed.
"When Bankulla looked for Korovin, who could have done the emergency tracheotomy, she was nowhere to be found. Rivers’ doctor had left the room, the suit said."
Does that sound extremely peculiar to anyone else, or is it just me........?
