IN THE SUPERIOR COURT OF GREENE COUNTY
STATE OF GEORGIA
WILLIAM MATTHEW POWERS, Plaintiff
vs.
PHILLIP DRISCOLL, DONNA DRISCOLL, DANIELLE AUGUST DRISCOLL, Defendants
CIVIL ACTION FILE NO.: 07-CV-031
On September 21, 2006, Danielle Driscoll was driving northbound on Pea Ridge Road when her two right tires went off the road onto the shoulder. She then attempted to re-enter the roadway, however, lost control of her vehicle, crossed the double yellow line and crashed into a vehicle occupied by Plaintiff, William Matthew Powers.
As a direct and proximate cause of this wreck, Mr. Powers suffered from a femur fracture and subsequently compartment syndrome. Mr. Powers incurred approximately $200,000 of medical bills and was left with a twelve inch scar from the compartment syndrome.
The defendants had offered $875,000 before trial claiming that a grater verdict in Greene County would be highly unlikely. The jury deliberated approximately two hours when the defendants offered the policy limits of $1,3000,000.
