3028 REVIEW DENIED In a wrongful life action in which plaintiff relied on a presumption of negligence (i.e., negligence per se) arising from defendant's violation of a regulation requiring doctors to caution their pregnant patients about the importance of testing for certain birth defects, the trial court committed reversible error by refusing to instruct the jury that it must find that defendant was negligent if it finds that he violated the regulation.CitationGALVEZ v FRIELDS (Wrongful Life) 88 CA4 1410 [See: 17 CCR 6527; H&SC 125070; EvC 669; BAJI 3.45; Daum v SpineCare 52 CA4 1285, T/AT 4/97; Soule v GM 8 C4 548, T/AT 11/94; Turpin v Sortini 31 C3 220; Maxwell v Powers 22 CA4 1596, T/AT 4/94]
