A judge has delivered a six-figure damage award in a vehicle collision case.
Carliss Tharpe was driving on Northwest 17th Avenue near 54th Street in Miami in 2012 when he claimed a vehicle operated by a U.S. Department of Agriculture employee collided with a vehicle next to his, which hit the driver’s side of Tharpe’s vehicle. Tharpe was diagnosed with herniated discs at C2-3 and C3-4 and a rotator cuff tear, and underwent both back fusion and shoulder surgery. He sued the federal government because it was a federally owned vehicle with the employee on duty.
