Defense Verdict
Sean Jackson and the trial team obtained a defense verdict in Pilkington v. Whitworth Water Dist. No. 2 in Spokane County Superior Court. The Plaintiffs claimed that the Water District negligently failed to discover a missing street valve box lid and that the Plaintiffs suffered personal injuries as a result. After a five-day trial, the jury deliberated for 90 minutes and found that the Water District had no notice of the condition and was therefore not negligent.
We congratulate Whitworth Water District No. 2 on this victory.
