Legal Question in Medical Malpractice in California

I lost a malpractice case. The defendant concealed a crucial evidence (x-rays) until one week before the trial. The judges in the lower court simply ignored my complaints again the defendant's dirty style. Is this something I can bring to appeal to a higher court? And is it possible that the issue can be addressed again in the trial court?

If what you are saying is that you brought a medical malpractice lawsuit in pro per and lost, what did you expect? The remedy for the wrong you cited could be a motion for a new trial, you have only 15 days from the end of the trial to file it.

Motion for new trial and an appeal are your options. You'll find that appeals are expensive.
