Latthe MD; and Penni Melissa Russo-Going MD alleging negligence.

According to the complaint, Jessie Burks was admitted to Park Manor of Cypress Station in July 2015 and died Nov. 4, 2015. The suit states Jessie Burks suffered pressure sores and infection of decubitus ulcers with purulent drainage and a blood clot in the leg before his death.
