Proven verdicts and settlements
On January 26, 1998, Julie and Erica Boomsma drove into a railroad flatcar blocking an elevator-service crossing in Wolsey, South Dakota, where the flashing lights were not working and the crossbuck understated the number of tracks. Julie broke her neck, right leg and right ankle and was left disabled; Erica had a cracked sinus, a concussion and a contusion. A jury awarded Julie and her husband $1,059,873.40 and Erica $21,781.88, and the South Dakota Supreme Court affirmed.
