Chris Cornell’s family settles lawsuit filed against the late singer’s doctor
Chris Cornell‘s family has reached a confidential settlement with the singer’s doctor, whom they sued for negligence and wilful misconduct in 2018.The lawsuit was first filed in November 2018 by Cornell’s widow Vicky and their children Toni and Christopher Nicholas, roughly a year and a half after Cornell’s death, which was ruled a suicide. According to Rolling Stone, the suit accused Dr Robert Koblin of never administering any follow-up medical examinations, lab studies or clinical assessments on Cornell after prescribing him Oxycodone.It also claimed Koblin never warned Cornell of the possible side effects of Lorazepam, of which Cornell, “an addiction-prone individual”, was prescribed 940 doses from 2015.
