John represented an individual who was accused of negligently running a red light, causing injuries to the Plaintiff. The trial was conducted via Zoom.
Prior to trial, Plaintiff indicated that, in addition to herself, she had two other witnesses who could testify favorably regarding liability. At trial, Plaintiff could not recall critical details of the accident. Plaintiff's passenger testified; however, the details of the passenger's story were inconsistent with the Plaintiff's version of events, nor the photographs of the vehicles' property damage. The Plaintiff's second witness did not appear for trial.
During the Defendant's case-in-chief, John skillfully navigated his client through various details of the accident. His client was able to recall specific details of the event.
In closing, John argued that Plaintiff did not meet her burden as Plaintiff and Plaintiff's witness' testimony were inconsistent. The Court agreed and determined that the evidence was in equipoise.
