Wrongful Death Lawsuit Filed Against Driver
The family of a teenager has filed a wrongful lawsuit against a female driver who ran into the young man while he was running with friends in the Chicago land area. Following the pedestrian accident, the driver, Desiree Britt, was cited for, among other things, possession of drug material and marijuana. Ms. Britt, according to records, has a criminal history that includes convictions for other traffic related offenses and battery.
The wrongful death lawsuit is expected to wind its way through the civil justice system and the family of the killed runner will, in all likelihood, take the case to trial, if the matter cannot be settled. It is unknown what type of insurance coverage the at fault party has and what kind of assets she has to pay towards any judgment.
