A Las Cruces man who operated an 18 Wheeler involved in a head-on collision on Christmas Eve resulting in the wrongful death of another motorist, has been indicted for manslaughter and leaving the scene of the accident. According to authorities, the 36 year old truck driver, Jesus Ramirez, is presently at large.

The victim is 18 year old Raymundo Bacerra and the accident occurred when Ramirez was trying to pass another car, was unsuccessful, resulting in the tragic collision. The victim was ejected from the truck and pulled by the semi.

It is not yet known whether Bacerra's family will file a wrongful death lawsuit.

The family of Syblen and Andrew McAbee, both of whom were killed in a car accident by a drunk driver, have filed a wrongful death lawsuit. The lawsuit, filed in an Anderson, South Carolina court, seeks money damages against not only the drunk driver, but also the driver's employer (Craft Construction Company) because the drunk driver was operating the construction company's truck at the time of the tragic accident.

As with any wrongful death lawsuit, the named Plaintiff's include the survivors (the children) and the victims' estate. The named Defendant is Robin Blair and there were a total of three people who lost their lives.

The Defendant Robin Blair was charged with DUI and his criminal prosecution will no doubt assist in the prosecution of the wrongful death lawsuit.

Numerous people are expected to file lawsuits, including for wrongful death, shortly after a pileup involving multiple 18 Wheelers in Orlando, Florida this past week. The potential Plaintiffs are sifting through all of the evidence and facts to determine exactly who will be named as Defendants in the lawsuit. It is a foregone conclusion that one or more of the tractor trailer drivers and their respective companies will be named in the complaint.

The pileup involved a couple of minivans and one of the potential plaintiffs is barely hanging on with life support. Florida officials were in the process and in fact did start a fire to burn dry brush, so the State could be named as a Defendant. Time will tell. No matter who are ultimately named as Defendants in this wrongful death lawsuit, it is sad and tragic.

Accidents like these could and should be avoided. If you or a loved one has been injured or killed in an 18 wheeler truck accident like this one, please contact my law office, Sam Levine, Attorney at Law, for a free consultation.

The family of a Florida woman is considering filing a wrongful death lawsuit against another truck driver following what has been described as a fiery crash that took place in rural Alabama just before Christmas. One of the two trucks, the log hauler, pulled out in front of another trucker, Deborah Fields, causing her to strike the rear of the log hauler.

The log hauler was cited for failure to yield the right of way and now faces criminal charges. It is unlikely that the family of the 18 wheeler operator will not file suit under these tragic circumstances.

Also facing a potential wrongful death lawsuit is the log hauling company itself given that the log hauler was oin the job at the time of the truck accident.
