Supreme Court Cuts Biggin Injury Award In South Dakota Case
The South Dakota supreme court reduced Thomas J. Biggin’s injury verdict from 12000 to 7000 against Carl R. Wagner and Fantle Brothers, citing that knowledge of liability insurance influenced the jury. The decision warns of strict scrutiny on verdicts when liability insurance is involved. Other actions include affirming a Mitchell dam case and Red Cross bequest, reversing damages against Northern States Power, and overturning a Draper elevator lease ruling.
