ok, so if you were to use an another analogy on the situation, let’s use basketball. i dribble the ball, and get fouled but i continue with an act of shooting and make a basket. in this case, the court would have decided that it was during the act of shooting therfore points count and you attempt a foul shot. if it were the way the plantiff was asking, there would only be a foul and the ball taken out on the sidelines.
my concern, is that the family had successfully sued for the injury/death and was award 3.4 mil, but how much will they actually get? is this kids family rich enough to payout that much money? i bet it will cause them to go bankrupt and then the family will get nothing. this award seems to big. thankfully state farm only has to payout only 100,000 total for the accident. (wondering if they had a 50/100 worth of coverage or something other than that.)
either way, someone lost! my condolences to the families.
I applaud the court’s finding in this case, as (in my opinion) it is the correct determination of the definition of “accident”.
I’ve one honest question, with no sarcasm involved. What logic/arguments were the dissenting Justices using that lead to a split court opinion?
