After only 23 minutes of deliberations, an Indian River County jury entered a defense verdict for Coca-Cola Beverages Florida, LLC (“Coke Florida”) and its driver.  Plaintiff claimed a rear-end collision caused her to have a broken bone in her neck and two neck surgeries, asking the jury to award over a million dollars in damages.  The trial team convinced the jury the accident was not the legal cause of Plaintiff’s injuries.  Defendants will be moving for their attorneys’ fees based on Plaintiff’s rejection of their Proposal for Settlement.  Judge Janet Croom presided.
