72-Year-Old Man Gets $300,000 Jury Award For Low-Impact Car Accident
A 2004 rear-end collision led to a lawsuit in Pasco County which resulted in a $300,000 jury award for the plaintiff. Francis Collins sued Rebecca Gohn following the 2004 accident and the case finally went to trial last week. The jury award was entirely for past and present medical expenses. There was no money awarded for pain and suffering.
According to TampaBay.com Collins was the passenger in what the paper termed a low-impact collision. The car crash was apparently severe enough to re-fracture Collins’ neck which was originally fractured 18 years prior to the crash. The accident occurred on Grand Boulevard and following the accident Collins had to have four surgeries due to the injury and a subsequent infection.
