Proven verdicts and settlements
A six-year-old boy was struck and killed by a North Callaway school bus in January 2011 after getting off at his stop. His parents sued the driver for wrongful death, and after a December 2012 bench trial in St. Louis the court entered judgment for them for $11,494,637.38. The judgment was not appealed. The Eastern District later held the school insurer's policy covered it.
Three families whose relative died when a Two Men and a Truck driver ran a red light in Weldon Spring, Missouri recovered $5 million from the franchise owner, J&C Enterprises Inc., in a wrongful death settlement reached in August 2022.
Kathleen Reagan, then 30, was driving a pickup on Interstate 57 near Charleston, Missouri, during a severe storm in July 2016 when a CRC Transport tractor-trailer struck the rear of her vehicle. She later had a cervical fusion. Her federal suit against the company and its driver settled in late 2018 for $1 million, the full amount of the available insurance coverage, after the defense disputed both fault and the need for surgery.
