Hilton v. Bressler

The trial jury delivered a unanimous verdict finding the Bresslers strictly liable[1] for Hiltons injuries and awarding Hilton damages equivalent to her past medical expenses. Hilton subsequently filed a motion for judgment notwithstanding the verdict or, in the alternative, a new trial. The trial court denied the motion. Court affirm.
