A trial court recently reached a verdict in a personal injury action involving a pedestrian and an City truck.  While walking in a private driveway, the plaintiff was struck by the City truck, driven by a police officer, causing severe and permanent injuries.

The trial court disagreed and found for the defendants.

Persons who suffer injury or are otherwise damages by the actions of public entities and/or their employees AND have a case pending under state negligence laws, may be eligible to receive lawsuit funding from a company which offers lawsuit loans to plaintiffs while the  lawsuit is being litigated.  The money can be used at the client’s discretion and need not be repaid if the case is unsuccessful.
