Jury Awarded $2.5M In The Verdict Against A Ski Resort
Introduction
Pennsylvania federal jury awarded $2.5 million to the plaintiff against Big Boulder Ski Resort as he got injured while snowboarding.
The Jury awarded the plaintiff $1.5 million for pain and suffering and $1 million for “loss of ability to enjoy life’s pleasures.” The plaintiff claimed that he was snowboarding with his friends and went down the resort’s Snowdrift trail. While going down the hill, he suddenly came upon the snowmaking machine and tried to swerve around it. He struck the machine severely with his leg and fractured his lower leg, which required corrective surgery, bruised his hips and injured his head and back.
The complaint stated that the resort was indifferent and negligent in placing the snow-making machine in the path and not making sure the slope was clearly closed.
