A Dallas jury has found a real estate developer guilty of negligence and awarded more than $860 million in damages to the estate and family of a woman who was killed nearly four years ago after a crane crashed into her apartment building.
Both Greystar and Bigge said the collapse was due to operator error, though each said the other was responsible for the operator and equipment.
"It was not caused by anything that Bigge did, and again Bigge of course extends its total condolences to the family," said Darrell Barger, lead attorney for the crane company after the verdict came down. Itkin explained the importance of one of the damaged figures which was a specific amount of $50,012,006.
