Proven verdicts and settlements
A Tennessee jury awarded Milan Supply Chain Solutions $30.8 million after finding that Navistar fraudulently concealed known defects in the MaxxForce diesel engines installed in 243 heavy-duty trucks it sold to the carrier; the verdict was later reversed by the Tennessee Supreme Court on economic-loss-doctrine grounds.
A Dallas County jury returned a $26.5 million verdict for Fernando Canales, a construction decker left paraplegic after a two-story fall, finding that general contractor RJC Midwest bore full responsibility for failing to train subcontractors on the proper use of fall-protection equipment.
A King County jury awarded $16.9 million to the family of David Oltman, killed when PenAir Flight 3296 overran the runway at Tom Madsen Airport in Unalaska, Alaska, after a maintenance contractor cross-wired the aircraft's antiskid brake system.
A Licking County jury found Navistar liable for fraud after the company concealed known defects in its MaxxForce engines, awarding Dutch Maid Logistics $1.3 million in compensatory and punitive damages, a verdict the Ohio Fifth District Court of Appeals upheld in full.
Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome. Each case is unique and depends on its own facts.
