James M. Campbell and Michelle I. Schaffer of Campbell Campbell Edwards & Conroy obtained a summary judgment ruling in the New Haven Superior Court, in a matter involving Honda Ridgeline.
The plaintiff, Arthur Decato, was the driver of the Ridgeline when he lost control of the vehicle on an icy stretch of I-95 that caused an initial impact with a guard rail to the right and then a subsequent direct frontal impact into a median barrier. Honda and its experts argued that the front airbag deployed properly following the impact with the barrier as it was designed to do.
The Honorable Judge Matthew Frechette ruled in Honda’s favor and dismissed all of the plaintiff’s claims due to insufficient evidence, view full opinion.
James M. Campbell served as lead trial counsel for Honda Motor Co., Inc. in this case. Michelle I. Schaffer served as co-counsel.
