In Murtagh's case, argues Spix, two hugely powerful Atlanta
institutions -- its flagship university and its major urban hospital -- "have
dragged out the arbitration process interminably, and quite obviously in a
continuing effort to exhaust both Murtagh's patience and his financial resources."
Concludes the attorney who helped win the intrepid whistle blower
his greatest legal victory to date:
"When you look at how Jim Murtagh has stood up to two of the most
politically powerful institutions in Georgia, and when you consider that he did
it in an effort to help reform them both, you have to conclude that he's
actually a pretty heroic figure -- one of those undaunted truth-tellers who
refuses to stop telling it like it is, regardless of personal cost."
