Shipping Firm Ordered to Pay Damages to Injured Worker

By Edward Bills

ADVERTISEMENTS

A Minnesota jury has ordered a shipping company and others to pay $1.8 million to a former crewmember injured in a 2004 accident in Duluth. After deliberating for about eight hours, jurors found that Indiana Harbor Steamship Co. and its owners were substantially responsible for the worker's injured knee and resulting complications. The award includes $962,430 for future lost earning capacity, $500,000 for future medical costs, $281,468 for past lost earnings, $50,000 for past pain and suffering and $25,000 for future pain and suffering.
