$850,000.000 Verdict for the wrongful death of an 18 year old Kentucky man who drowned on Dale Hollow Lake in Clay County, Tennessee
A $850,000.00 verdict was obtained in the Northeastern Division of the Middle District of Tennessee for the Wrongful death of an 18 year old Kencucky man who drowned on Dale Hollow Lake in Clay County, Tennessee.
Although the deceased was 18 years old and had reached the age of majurity for some purposes, the jury agreed with B. Keith William's argument that we reach the age of majority for drinking alcohol at the age of 21 - not 18.
The Jury found for the surviving parents who claimed that a Tennessee boat dock owner failed to properly supervise a teen drinking party that resulted in the drowning of their son. The Jury also found that the deceased was 50% at fault which reduced the verdict by the same amount.
After post trial motions, the case was settled on appeal.
Awarded: $850,000.00
