Proven verdicts and settlements
A Mobile jury awarded $7 million, $3 million compensatory and $4 million punitive, against AltaPointe Health Systems after a mentally incapacitated 19-year-old patient at its BayPointe Children's Psychiatric Hospital was sexually assaulted by another, unsupervised patient and staff did not report it for roughly a day.
On June 25, 2014 John Williams Jr., a certified crane operator at the VT Halter Marine shipyard in Pascagoula, was in the cab of a Manitowoc Model 16000 crawler crane during a three-crane lift of a ship's bow when the cranes began pulling apart and his tipped. The 18,000-pound steel counterweights stacked on its rear slid forward and struck the cab, throwing him eight feet head-first onto concrete. He survived, permanently incapacitated. A Gulfport jury found Manitowoc never warned operators that could happen and awarded $8,500,000; after fault was split 50/40/10 the judgment against Manitowoc was $3,400,000, and the Fifth Circuit affirmed in 2018.
