The family of Apollo 13 actor Bill Paxton is suing Cedars-Sinai Medical Center bosses in Los Angeles for wrongful death.
They claim the negligence of medics was responsible for the 61-year-old’s death last year.
Paxton’s widow, Louise, and his kids, James and Lydia, filed the complaint in Los Angeles on Friday, alleging an unnamed doctor provided “negligent diagnosis, management and treatment” when Paxton was admitted to the hospital a year ago.
The suit suggests a delay in treatment led to Paxton suffering cardiogenic shock and a compromised right coronary artery.

LOS ANGELES — The family of Bill Paxton has filed a wrongful death lawsuit against a Los Angeles hospital and the surgeon who performed the actor’s heart surgery shortly before he died.
The suit filed Friday against Cedars-Sinai Medical Center alleges the surgeon used a “high risk and unconventional surgical approach” that was unnecessary and that he lacked the experience to perform.
Paxton’s death certificate says he died Feb. 25, 2017, from a stroke, 11 days after surgery to replace a heart valve and repair aorta damage.
A spokeswoman for the hospital says patient privacy laws forbid her from giving comment on Paxton’s case, but nothing is more important to Cedars-Sinai than the health and safety of its patients.
Paxton starred in the films “Titanic” and “Aliens,” and the HBO series “Big Love.”
