Michael Doyle was a 26-year-old financial trader. While he was at a New Year’s Eve party in 2007 he and five other people were on the third floor deck at the back of the apartment building. When he got from sitting on the stairs he tripped and fell head first through the metal railings of the deck to the ground below. He was killed instantly.

Just two months before the accident the management of the building had been notified by the insurance carrier that the large railing gap, which was two feet by eight feet, should be closed with wire mesh. The city had also previously inspected the porch finding that some of the columns were rotted and there were inadequate bolts.

The family filed a wrongful death suit against the management of the building. The wrongful death settlement was recently reached in the amount of $2.7 million.

A wrongful death lawsuit was recently filed against East Ohio Gas Company in Lake County. The lawsuit was filed by Frank Pitchler for the death of his wife on January 28, 2009. The lawsuit states that a plastic pipe inside a steel pipe was improperly used to connect the EOG gas line to the house. The plastic pipe then cracked allowing gas to enter the home.

The hazard in the home was tremendous and the mere turning on of a  kitchen appliance ignited the gas and caused a very large explosion. The entire house was destroyed along with all of the couple’s belongings. Frank was critically injured and his was died 18 hours later in the hospital. The blast was so large that the houses within a 1,000 foot radius of the blast were damaged. The explosion even busted out all of the windows in the house across the street.

The second Blizzard related wrongful death has been filed against the city of New York. The incident happened on December 27, 2010 when 63-year-old Claire Reed began suffering from chest pains in her Brooklyn apartment. The family waited an hour and a half for the ambulance to come. Mrs. Reed ended up dying in her apartment and her husband has filed a wrongful death suit against the city seeking $20 million.

The reason for the delay, even though they called 9-1-1 twice within that time period, was that the streets were so snow clogged that the ambulance could not manage to get there with all of the snow.

The failure to provide an atmosphere for emergency services to continue on in a timely matter cost one woman her life. They should be held responsible for their negligence.

On December 29th in Michigan a man and a woman were killed in an explosion that occurred in a furniture store. The families of the two victims have filed a wrongful death suit against Consumers Energy, who supplied the gas to the furniture store and the surrounding neighborhood. Each family is seeking damages of at least $25,000.

The wrongful death case claims that Consumers Energy had taken two different calls from neighbors in the area complaining about the bad gas smell. These calls occurred at 6:40 and 7:40 am. Even after the calls were made there was no attempt to evacuate the neighborhood. At around 9 am that morning an explosion in the furniture store occurred. The explosion trapped the store owner and killed two of his employees.

The lawyers in this case state that  Consumers Energy violated a section of the Michigan Public Service Commission’s Michigan Gas Safety Standards that says, “If the investigation reveals a hazardous situation, then the operator shall take immediate action to evacuate, repair or isolate the facilities involved to reduce any danger to the public.”

Because they did not do this, Consumers Energy should be held responsible for their negligence that ended in the death of two and the hospitalization and burning of another.
