Heavy damage suit verdict at Erie court
A jury ruled four thousand five hundred dollars in damages in an Erie court verdict. The father received two thousand dollars and the son two thousand five hundred for injuries after a logging truck attached to a turbine ran over Lloyd Harvey. The accident occurred when Harvey and other children played in front of the Hay home as the truck passed. Doctors could not save the boy’s leg, and the father pursued additional damages for his own loss. The Harvey family was represented by Rossiter Dunn of Gre in the case, which drew unusual local interest. The trial spanned Monday to Wednesday with the verdict delivered Wednesday afternoon.
