J.P. v. Central Illinois manufacturer
Aug 01, 2012OUTCOME: $7,500,000 settlement
A worker spraying for weeds on a job site entered a fenced in area with high voltage equipment that was not properly marked as such. 35,000 volts of electricity arced to his back, out his feet, yet he ... survived. He sustained lower leg amputations and scarring. We proved the manufacturer negligently failed to keep the gate on the dangerous fenced in area locked.
