City Police Officer Leaves Sacramento Car Accident Victim With Life-Threatening Injuries, Part 10 of 10

(Please note: the names and locations of all parties have been changed to protect the confidentiality of the participants in this personal injury case and its proceedings.)

It is worth noting that situations similar to those described in this automobile accident case could just as easily involve the California Highway Patrol or the law enforcement divisions of any local municipality, such as Roseville, El Dorado Hills, West Sacramento, or Elk Grove.

The Evidence Presented by Plaintiff at Trial Constitutes “Significant Evidence.”

During the course of this trial, there was significant evidence with regard to the brain injury, and other physical injuries, suffered by Sandra White. Every medical expert, plaintiff and defense, agreed that she did indeed suffer a traumatic brain injury. Further, the testimony of plaintiff’s experts and defendant’s experts as to the extent of Ms. White’s injuries was not identical, but that is surely to be expected. The mere fact that there was contradicting expert opinion evidence does not diminish the solid value of the evidence presented.

Further, plaintiffs provided significant evidence not only by way of expert opinion, but also through testimony of Ms. White’s family that was consistent with what was seen on the “sub rosa” videotape. There was no significant “contradiction,” as defendant suggests, that would be sufficient to support a granting of a JNOV. Rather, plaintiff put on substantial evidence in support of her injuries and the verdict in this case. Even defendant’s experts confirmed that Ms. White had a brain injury and multiple physical injuries as a result of this collision. Thus, this court should deny defendant’s Motion for a Judgment Notwithstanding the Verdict.


CONCLUSION

Based on the foregoing, plaintiff respectfully requests this court deny defendant’s Motion for Judgment Notwithstanding the Verdict.
