Plaintiffs get $38.6M after truck without underride protection causes fatal crash
2006
Overview
In an effort to explain why there had been no regulation, [Chip Ferguson] and [Chris Coco] used a former employee of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), who testified about the strong lobby the industry has in Washington, D.C. and how much influence the Truck Trailer Manufacturers Association (TTMA) wields. Experts offered conflicting evidence on the plaintiff's lifespan. One said the plainitff could live another 50 years, another said another 25 years was more likely. Ferguson and Coco told the jury a verdict of $50 million would compensate for her injuries and her daughters' loss of consortium. Plaintiff's attorneys: Chip Ferguson and Chris Coco of Provost & Umphrey in Beaumont, Texas.
