Hill alleged that SSM improperly destroyed surveillance video of the incident. The appellate court reversed the trial court's judgment and remanded for a new trial, finding that the trial court erred by denying Hill's motion for an adverse inference under the spoliation doctrine and by overruling his objection to SSM's misstatement of law during closing arguments regarding spoliation.","primaryTopic":"evidence","topicSlugs":["evidence","civil-procedure","wrongful-death","appellate-procedure","jury-instructions"],"outcomeNorm":"mixed","officialSourceUrl":"https://www.courts.mo.gov/file.jsp?id=127175","detailUrl":"https://ott.law/missouri-courts/opinions/timothy-hill-appellant-v-ssm-health-care-st-louis-respondent-105779","relatedPracticeAreas":[{"slug":"personal-injury","label":"Personal Injury","href":"/practice-areas/personal-injury","score":20,"source":"tag","evidence":["tag: personal-injury"],"url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/personal-injury"},{"slug":"wrongful-death","label":"Wrongful Death","href":"/practice-areas/wrongful-death","score":12,"source":"topic","evidence":["topic: wrongful-death"],"url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/wrongful-death"},{"slug":"litigation","label":"Civil Litigation","href":"/practice-areas/litigation","score":12,"source":"topic","evidence":["topic: civil-procedure","topic: jury-instructions","topic: evidence","topic: appellate-procedure"],"url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/litigation"}],"role":"respondent"},{"caseId":"moappd:ed96364:2011-12-20","opinionId":"0bd3c378-4f3c-5277-9238-b418f4f7a547","slug":"anthony-w-jennings-appellant-v-ssm-health-care-st-louis-respondent-d96364","caseName":"Anthony W.
