Abortion protester claims doctor intentionally struck him with car

The Associated Press

WICHITA | An abortion protester who claims Dr. George Tiller intentionally hit him with his vehicle outside the clinic has sued the Wichita doctor in a small claims case that has attracted the attention of two court television programs.

Mark Gietzen, the director of Kansas Coalition for Life, is seeking $4,000 for his injuries for an April 2006 incident at the edge of the driveway into the Women’s Health Care Services. Two court television programs — Judge Judy and Judge Joe Brown — have written Gietzen asking him to allow the case to be arbitrated on their shows.

Gietzen, who is proceeding as his own attorney in small claims court, conceded it would be unlikely that Tiller would agree to arbitration on the television court programs.

No criminal charges were filed after police viewed clinic surveillance video of the incident.

1. It is not a crime to run over roadkill.
