Minnesota’s Claim Over Bridge Collapse Can Proceed | Ohio Wrongful Death Lawyers
The Minnesota Supreme Court ruled that the state can seek compensation from a California design firm that tried to block lawsuits over the Minneapolis bridge collapse. This ruling allows the claim that the state filed against Jacobs Engineering Group Inc. of Pasadena to continue. Laws passed in 2008 allow the state to seek reimbursement from parties that may have contributed to the 2007 collapse that killed 13 people and injured 145. After a federal investigation, it was proved that a design flaw was a key cause in the collapse. The state has paid over $37 million to victims, through statutes and an emergency fund.
