Proven verdicts and settlements
On March 23, 1987, a man was shot in the head during an attempted robbery near a subway staircase off the vestibule of the former Gimbel's building in Manhattan and suffered severe brain damage. A guardian ad litem sued the building's owner on his behalf. After the owner agreed at a settlement meeting in November 1994 to pay $7.5 million and then disputed that the deal was final, the federal court enforced it by judgment in February 1995. The Second Circuit affirmed in January 1996.
Richie Lee Wilson, a 35-year-old licensed practical nurse and mother of three, was left with brain damage and left-sided paralysis after jaw reconstruction surgery at Medical Center Hospitals in May 1980. A Virginia jury found the hospital and the general surgeon negligent and awarded $2.75 million. The trial court cut the judgment to the $750,000 statutory cap for medical malpractice, and in January 1989 the Supreme Court of Virginia upheld the cap against constitutional challenge, so $750,000 stood.
