One of two things happen "Friends of the Governor" either successfully performed or they didn't.
Based on the QMC financial situation that is routinely brought up here by the masses, QMC has no money.
It would not be worth the time and money to bring a lawsuit by "Friends of the Governor" (you can't get blood from a stone) UNLESS they did deliver and knew revenues would be coming in , in which they could stake a claim on.
Btw
It would all depend if the patient dies or the lawyer lost do to malpractice or non fulfillment of their obligation now wouldn't it?
