Tо celebrаte finishing his psychiаtric residency, а dоctоr went on vacation with two of his fellow residents. After having several drinks at a local bar, the doctor encountered an unconscious woman on the sidewalk. Assuming that she had suffered a heart attack, the doctor immediately began providing cardiopulmonary resuscitation. One of the other residents told the doctor that he believed that the woman has just fainted, and that they should bring her some water. In fact, the woman has a condition that causes her to faint when she gets dehydrated. Due to his inebriated state, however, the doctor ignored the other resident and aggressively continued giving chest compressions. In the process, he accidentally broke one of the woman's ribs. When the woman regained consciousness, she was in extreme pain from the broken rib. She later sued the doctor for negligence. The doctor moves to dismiss the complaint, citing a Good Samaritan statute adopted by the state that protects medical personnel from liability for ordinary negligence when they voluntarily render emergency care. Is the judge likely to grant the doctor's motion to dismiss?
