Whigham v. Shands Teaching Hospital and Clinics, Inc.,
     613 So. 2d 110 (Fla 1^st DCA 1993).
 

A decedent died as a result of an HIV infected blood transfusion. His wife and brother, as co-administrators of his estate, sued  a hospital and blood bank. The Alachua County Circuit Court dismissed the action on the basis of the medical malpractice statute of repose.

Ms. Lippincott represented the estate on appeal. The appellate court held that the statute of repose had no application to the blood bank. Therefore the action against the blood bank was reinstated. However, the dismissal in favor of the hospital was affirmed.
