Amicus Briefs Filed in U.S. Supreme Court in Support of Creed & Gowdy’s Client

The United States of America, the American Association of Justice, and the Florida Justice Association filed amicus briefs in the U.S. Supreme Court in support of Creed & Gowdy's client, Ms. Gianinna Gallardo, a Medicaid beneficiary. Ms. Gallardo's case asks the Court to decide whether a state Medicaid agency may seek reimbursement for Medicaid's payment of the beneficiary's past medical expenses by taking from the portion of the beneficiary's tort recovery that compensates for future medical expenses. The American Academy of Physician Life Care Planners also filed an amicus brief that supported neither party. The amicus briefs may be reviewed at the Court's docket
