Case Details
Loss of right hand due to product defect in factory machine
Additional Notes
A young woman was working in a bakery monitoring the product on the line. One machine on the line was a conveyor and sorting system with a large opening on the side of the machine. Inside the machine’s opening was a large sprocket and chain used to drive the machine. Some of the raw baking product fell inside the machine and the young woman reached through the opening to retrieve it. Her wrist was caught by the chain, she suffered severe traumatic injuries to her hand and ultimately required amputation of her right hand. The Law Offices of John Day, P.C. represented the young woman in a suit against the manufacturers of the machine. The case was mediated and settled for one million and four hundred thousand dollars ($1,400,000.00).
