One of the most closely watched cases in recent Pennsylvania history involving an $18 million verdict, post-trial procedures and a long list of appellate lawyer heavyweights filing amicus briefs is set to be argued before the state Supreme Court in Pittsburgh this week.
Other cases set to be argued include a sharply divided state Superior Court’s decision that an imprisoned man, convicted of third-degree murder, may see his daughter; a motor vehicle insurance dispute in which an insured received delay damages based on a jury award rather than the trial judge’s reduced award of the policy limits; and a case addressing the ability of law enforcement officers to collect post-traumatic stress disorder benefits are among the matters.The high court also had primed for argument the appeal of a convicted murderer who was denied the right to testify after the evidentiary phase of his trial had closed.
