 Francis Petre - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Francis Petre was born in 1847 at Petone, today a suburb of Lower Hutt in the North Island, which was one of the earliest British settlements in New Zealand.
Francis Petre's immediate family was one of the first and most prominent colonial families of New Zealand; Petre Bay, Chatham Island was named after them, as - originally - was the town of Wanganui in the North Island.
Petre's original intention, however, was for a mighty structure, with the twin towers dwarfed by a huge spire some 60 metres (200 ft) in height, which would have resulted in one of the most magnificent cathedrals in the southern hemisphere.

 CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Family of Petre
Petre's unpopularity as a Jesuit was so great that it harmed the king's cause; but if we regard his conduct by itself, no serious fault has yet been proved against him.
A further cause of irritation, however, had been given by the admission of Petre to the rank of privy councillor (11 Nov., 1687), and the oath of allegiance taken on that occasion, though not objected to in the case of the other Catholic lords, was much commented upon, and laid before the pope.
The Petres are one of those staunch and constant families, which have played a great part in the preservation of the Catholic Faith in England.

 1032641.htm
The Petre court found that Dr. Kucich and CMA each filed an answer denying that Petre's injury was the result of their conduct and thus, based on Leonardi, held that both defendants should have been allowed to present evidence of the Hickory physicians' alleged postoperative negligence on the issue of proximate cause.
Based on this discussion, the Petre court found that with the admission of defendants' evidence of the subsequent treaters' negligence, there would be evidence tending to show that the sole proximate cause of Petre's injury, the sternal debridement and reconstructive surgery, could have been the conduct of a third person.
Pursuant to this court's ruling in Petre, however, the trial court denied these motions and allowed the defense to elicit evidence during the second trial that the actions of the dismissed Hickory defendants, and not these defendants, were the proximate cause of Petre's injuries.
