GTP host Steve Lowery is leading the conservation today with special guest Maxey Scherr, the founder of Scherr Law Firm in El Paso, Texas. They explore the complexities of an extraordinary case, Mendoza vs. Titan Transportation, where Maxey secured a verdict of over $16 million for her client, Ruben Ivan Mendoza. Remember to rate and review GTP on Apple Podcasts: Click Here to Rate and Review Case Details: The case revolved around a severe truck crash in Dallas County, Texas, where Ruben Mendoza, the driver of a pickup truck leased by Titan Transportation, was rear-ended by a truck owned by DSX Transportation. Despite the defense's attempts to frame Mendoza as an independent contractor, Maxey successfully proved that he was an employee in the course and scope of his employment, showcasing Titan's negligence in his lack of training and safety protocols. Scherr Law Firm secures an $11,005,000 settlement with three of four defendants named in a lawsuit and obtains a $16,857,276 verdict against the fourth remaining defendant in their second trial.

On January 20, 2025, two Indian courtrooms separated by 2,500 kilometres, delivered two widely diverging verdicts. Both the judgments – the life sentence awarded to Sanjoy Roy in the brutal rape and murder of a doctor at the RG Kar Medical College, and the death penalty for S.S. Greeshma in the Sharon Raj murder – “feel” wildly dissatisfying. The parallel narratives — one of institutional violence, another of intimate violence — force us to confront uncomfortable questions. Both the RG Kar and Sharon Raj verdicts reveal a need for neat narratives, for monsters we can identify and eliminate by sending our problems to the gallows. But violence rarely announces itself with such clarity. When we reduce justice to a spectacle — whether through public bloodlust or performative celebration — we dodge the harder questions about why women's bodies remain battlegrounds… and why their choices invite harsher judgment than their violation," says Karanjeet Kaur, journalist and former editor of Arré, in this week's column ----------------------------------------------------------------

For our last episode of 2024, we explore a Christmas film many are not familiar with, unless you live in the USA.A Christmas Story is a staple of an American Christmas, so much so, it gets looped for forty-eight hours on its own TV channel every year. Jason and Chris attempt to try and figure out why that is and whether it will resonate with the audiences from the rest of the world.We didn't do this alone, as we were kindly sent in some voicemails from American friends who shared their memories of the film and their thoughts on why this film hasn't resonated with people outside of the states.

Guilty verdicts for all. A court in southern France sentencing Dominique Pelicot along with the fifty co-defendants he invited over the Internet into the family home to rape his drugged wife. The seventy two-year old pensioner got the maximum twenty years. We will ask what the last two months have revealed, first about the courage of ex-wife Gisele Pelicot who opted to go public, attending every day of the three and-a-half month trial, saying shame was for her predators, less than one-third of whom expressed remorse in their closing statements. Is the verdict a triumph for victims the world over? Or does it challenge the presumption of that after MeToo, women's rights can only progress? After all, the evidence was posted online years before police or the victim caught wind of what was playing out in the Provence village of Mazan. Produced by Aline Bottin, Rebecca Gnignati and Ilayda Habip.
Sharon Gaffney, Journalist with France 24, discusses the latest in the case involving the mass rape and drugging of Gisele Pelicot.
A New York judge has rejected Donald Trump's attempt to overturn his 34 felony convictions for falsifying business records, dismissing his argument that the Supreme Court's immunity ruling protects him. Judge Juan Merchan ruled that the evidence presented at trial did not violate Trump's presidential immunity, calling the claims harmless error even if they were considered official acts. He also noted the "overwhelming evidence of guilt" presented at trial. Trump's legal team plans to appeal this, which could delay his sentencing indefinitely. Originally set for July, sentencing has already been postponed twice due to the presidential election, leaving the timeline unclear. Jail time is unlikely, with legal experts saying Trump would remain free pending appeal, especially as the president-elect. The hush money case is the only one of Trump's four criminal prosecutions to go to trial. His two federal cases were dismissed ahead of his White House return, but the future of the Georgia election interference case and another New York case remain uncertain.

Verdict number 1: $7 million. Verdict number 2: $101 million. Verdict number 3: $13.2 million. That's how a recent 30-day run went for Kimball Jones and his team at Bighorn Law.While he's proud of those accomplishments, and others, “It's the firm that we've put together – That's gotta be the thing that I'm the most proud of.”Tune in with host Dan Ambrose as Kimball describes why he's proud of the team, especially how they bolstered the recent cases. He will share more for TLU: on October 1, he'll break down the case with the $13.2 million verdict, a challenging one because his client didn't seek treatment for the first time until two weeks after the crash that injured her. On October 14 for TLU, he'll analyze a wrongful death car accident case that will have gone to trial just the prior week. Then, the following week at TLU Vegas, Kimball will offer two one-hour lectures: one about lessons learned along his journey and the other about strategies to overcome “gaps-in-care” cases like the one where he secured $13.2 million.Train and Connect with the Titans☑️ Kimball Jones | LinkedIn | Email☑️ Bighorn Law | LinkedIn | Instagram | Facebook☑️ TLU VEGAS☑️ Trial Lawyers University☑️ TLU On Demand Instant access to live lectures, case analysis, and skills training videos☑️ TLU on X | Facebook | Instagram | LinkedIn☑️ Subscribe Apple Podcasts | Spotify | YouTubeEpisode SnapshotKimball Jones' path: studying law (boring), clerking (boring), serving in the US National Guard (counterintelligence: cool, but he can't tell you about it), launching his law career on advice from a law school buddy (who was in court against insurance companies. “I thought, ‘I'd be good at that.'”)Why a gut-wrenching loss taught him to avoid bringing in his client's medical recordsHow focus groups shaped his case on behalf of a...
Safely delivering freight on time & undamaged is difficult even under the best of circumstances. And while professional driving is among the most common jobs in the US, it remains among the most dangerous. But it's getting harder. Much harder.Everyday we see news of nuclear verdicts. These verdicts are among the largest concerns for truckers & motor carriers. They impact everyone: from shippers to brokers to motor carriers to consumers. While not a legal term, nuclear verdicts generally describe any verdict exceeding $10M. These are not those verdicts.Increasingly the trucking industry is facing verdicts exceeding $100M. Manufacturers, trucking companies, and, without Supreme Court intervention, brokerages, now see the dire situation unfolding before them. I have taken to characterizing these as thermonuclear verdicts: judgments that exceed $100M. Judgments that will bankrupt nearly anyone that touches them. Woe be to the transportation industry. If you're not paying attention yet, you will be.Where will I be next?Join me at the Journal of Commerce Inland Distribution Conference, Sept. 30-Oct. 2nd in Chicago. I will be speaking about Post Employment Restrictive Covenants. Next up is DATCON, Oct. 22nd-24th in Kansas City. My audience can save $200 on tickets using code "armchair200".

The phrase "nuclear verdict" strikes fear into the heart of any defendant - and today we're going to tackle it head on. We welcome Dusty Otwell, JD, medical malpractice defense attorney and Chief Risk Officer of UCACS, to the podcast to discuss “nuclear," "runaway jury," or aberration verdicts. These are jury awards to the plaintiff, given at trial, that well exceed predictions. They tend to make headlines, create fear among doctors and other providers, and lead other parties to dream of giant jackpots. In this episode we discuss: Societal trends that may be fostering the increase in aberration verdicts How we can mitigate our fear around the possibility of an aberration verdict What happens after an aberration verdict: post-trial negotiations, and real-sizing the risk to your personal assets Why defendants should feel empowered to speak up, request preparation, and ask for 'financial risk estimates' The ‘reptile theory' deployed at trial by plaintiff's attorneys, and how tapping into the general anger in society fuels their persuasion Why and how defense teams need to evolve to combat these tactics Now, more than ever, preparation of the defendant should be paramount and start EARLY in the case. More about host Gita Pensa, MD, can be found at https://doctorsandlitigation.com/ Dusty Otwell is vice president for claims and risk management at US Acute Care Solutions. He also serves as Chief Operating Officer and Corporate Secretary for Clinician Assurance Risk Retention Group, the self-insurance carrier for USACS. Previously, he was associate general counsel and director of risk management for Emergency Service Partners, a founding partner of USACS; a senior risk management consultant for ProAssurance Corporation, staff attorney for Maynard, Cooper & Gale, P.C., and staff counsel for Medical Reimbursements of America, LLC.
SERIES 2 EPISODE 185: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (1:44) SPECIAL COMMENT: Do not be fooled by the dismissive attitude of the media of the impact on Trump voting support of the jury's finding of Guilty, Guilty, Guilty, Guilty, Guilty, Guilty, Guilty, Guilty, Guilty, Guilty, Guilty, Guilty, Guilty, Guilty, Guilty, Guilty, Guilty, Guilty, Guilty, Guilty, Guilty, Guilty, Guilty, Guilty, Guilty, Guilty, Guilty, Guilty, Guilty, Guilty, Guilty, Guilty, Guilty, and not NOT-Guilty. If, as the most circumspect pre-verdict polling suggests, 2% of his voters would peel away, that (based on 2020) is 1,500,000 voters and at least 5 electoral votes, and (based on 2016) would have been enough to throw Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin to Clinton. It reminds us that we should stop looking for the game-ender for Trump and rely instead on the incrementals, because they - and the justice that invoke them - will defeat him. Also, can the Trump cultists explain to me: are these 34 verdicts election interference that will stop Trump from winning, or are they a political gift that just gave him the election? Because you keep saying BOTH. PLUS: If you missed it, John Roberts just told Dick Durbin and Sheldon Whitehouse to go F themselves. He's king for life and he won't even talk to them about the Alito Scandal, or the OTHER Alito Scandal, or the Roberts scandal. Fine. Subpoena him. And if he ignores that, arrest him. This country is changing and those who act will decide whether it changes for the good or the bad, and we are the good guys. B-Block (32:40) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: Clay Travis goes entirely racist on The View's Sonny Hostin (and even on the WNBA's Caitlin Clark). Minnesota GOP Senate likelihood Royce White (who played eight minutes and 55 seconds in the NBA and don't you forget it) is in trouble again.
