$988,000.00
A 64-year-old truck driver was waiting in a warehouse for his truck to be loaded. He stood next to shelving that was holding several tons of sheet metal. An employee of the defendant had admittedly, overloaded the shelving and it gave way, raining 1,500 pounds of sheet metal upon the plaintiff. He suffered multiple fractures up and down the right side of his entire body. Although he was approaching the normal retirement age of 65, we presented evidence from his employer that he would have continued to work until the age of 70. Shortly after his deposition the case settled for $988,000.
