A federal lawsuit seeking at least $30 million has been filed against the trucking company that employed a driver whose vehicle struck and killed a woman who was parked on the shoulder of the roadway on Interstate 95 in December 2016.

The amended wrongful death lawsuit, filed Tuesday in U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut in New Haven, maintains that Illinois-based MGR Freight Services should be held responsible for the actions of its driver, Nicolae Marcu, who lives in New Hampshire. The original lawsuit filed last years cites Marcu as one of the defendants, while the lawsuit filed this week seeks compensation from the company. The original lawsuit is still pending.
