1707 REVIEW GRANTED A mother may recover for emotional distress resulting from concern for her own well-being caused by negligence in the delivery of her baby; although its effect may be harsh, CCP 667.7, which requires the court, upon the request of a party, to enter judgment for periodic payments if future non-economic damages exceed $50,000, does not violate the constitutional rights to jury trial or due process.CitationSALGADO v COUNTY OF LA (Periodic Payments) 57 CA4 574 [See: Dillon v Legg 68 C2 728; Molien v Kaiser 27 C3 1033; Burgess v Superior Court 2 C4 1064; CCP 667.7; Hrimnak v Watkins 38 CA4 964, T/AT 11/95]
