Brian Chojnowski and Stuart Poage, of the Tallahassee office, in a five day trial, obtained a complete defense verdict in a disputed liability motor vehicle accident case.  The Plaintiff was riding in the open bed of a pick up truck that was struck on the side by the Defendant.  The case was defended on liability grounds as the defense’s theory was that the truck turned into the path of the Defendant’s vehicle despite the Defendant having a green light and the right of way.  Plaintiff claimed he suffered road rash, torn ligaments, and muscles in his leg resulting in a permanent injury, and a permanent lumbar spine injury and sought significant damages for past and future medical damages, past and future pain and suffering, and future lost earning capacity.  After only 25 minutes of deliberations, the jury found the Defendant was not negligent.
