Clinton sought a writ of mandamus to compel the circuit court to dismiss the action, claiming immunity under the federal PREP Act and two Missouri statutes. The Missouri Supreme Court quashed its preliminary writ of mandamus, holding that Yarnell's petition did not implicate a \"covered countermeasure\" under the PREP Act, Clinton failed to demonstrate deployment under one state immunity statute, and Yarnell adequately alleged recklessness to overcome the other state immunity statutes.","primaryTopic":"governmental-immunity","topicSlugs":["governmental-immunity","civil-procedure","wrongful-death","negligence","administrative-law"],"outcomeNorm":"unknown","officialSourceUrl":"https://www.courts.mo.gov/file.jsp?id=206153","detailUrl":"https://ott.law/missouri-courts/opinions/state-ex-rel-clinton-no-1-inc-relator-v-the-honorable-brandon-baker-respo-100099","relatedPracticeAreas":[{"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":11,"source":"topic","evidence":["topic: civil-procedure","fallback litigation route behind specific injury signal"],"url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/litigation"},{"slug":"personal-injury","label":"Personal Injury","href":"/practice-areas/personal-injury","score":11,"source":"tag","evidence":["tag: personal-injury","topic: negligence","fallback personal-injury route behind specific injury signal"],"url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/personal-injury"}],"role":"respondent"}]}
