Case Details

John Cain was injured when a seven-foot-high stack of 50-pound dog food bags toppled on him at Walmart. Walmart admitted responsibility, and a jury awarded a large damage award, nearly five times the amount of Walmart’s highest pre-trial settlement offer.

Additional Notes

Walmart initially claimed Cain was not careful enough in picking up the bag, but dropped that defense before trial and admitted responsibility. The jury's award was nearly five times Walmart's highest pre-trial settlement offer.
