    I’m sure Ma, Pa and the Boy have lots of assests to attach.
    No matter how remote who’s deep pockets is the plaintifs atturney going to attack.

    And the Atty gets about $300,000 out of that…

    Statutory Limits in ND are $25/50/25

    What would they have gotten if he was carrying insurance for failing to yield? $600,000 excl punitive is huge!

    Anyone able to provide insight

    I found another article on this that provides some additional information:
    http://www.in-forum.com/articles/index.cfm?id=194620&section=news
    Apparently, the driver was cited for driving without insurance 15 days earlier in another accident that even involved other members of this victim’s family !
    What I don’t get is why isn’t he in prison for vehicular manslaughter ? Seems he should be to protect the rest of society.
