Anthony Martinez, PPA, et al. v. City of New Haven, et al.: A New Haven student who received a permanent facial injury when he was 11 years old was awarded more than $40,000 after a Superior Court judge found one of the city’s magnet schools was negligent.
On March 19, 2013, Anthony Martinez arrived at the Engineering Science University Magnet School and headed to the auditorium to have his breakfast as he did every morning, according to court documents. Scott Stewart was the teacher on duty and was charged with watching over 70 to 75 students before they headed off to class. But 10 minutes before school was to start, another teacher, identified in court documents as Miss Campbell, was chasing after two students. She was running with a pair of safety scissors in her hand, which she dropped in the chaos.
