John Fleming tried a case that involved an injured plaintiff who suffered a compression fracture in the spine, due to an electrocution at a trailer site where a resident was re-wiring his camper. Expert witnesses testified for both sides on the cause of electrocution involving underground wiring. The jury awarded a verdict to the injured plaintiff covering his medical bills and a small amount for pain and suffering. The verdict was less than one quarter of the injured plaintiff’s lowest demand.
