March, 2007 - Brick Brown, Dewayne Lonas and Pam Sellers, along with legal assistant Vicki Douglas recently received a defense verdict on behalf of CNH America LLC and Old Dominion Tractor and Equipment Company, Inc. in a $10 million products liability action.  The lawsuit involved a former Virginia Power employee who claimed that he was pitched out of a loader backhoe by an improperly designed door and an improperly manufactured component part which resulted in a neck injury which left him totally disabled.  The complaint also asserted various warranty claims, all of which were dismissed on summary judgment prior to trial.  Following a four day trial, the jury deliberated briefly and then returned a verdict in favor of defendants on all remaining claims.
