The lawsuit is taking place in a Fauquier County District Court, according to state court documents.
Mr. Jeck is seeking $10 million under the Wrongful Death Act and an additional $5 million for “severe pain and emotional anguish,” according to the report.
The lawsuit alleges that the hospital was negligent by failing to provide a GI specialist, failing to implement a contingency plan, failing to perform treatment in a timely manner and failing to employ “skill and diligence.”
