News Guest dies, found unresponsive after riding Stardust Racers

[Fido Chuckwagon]

I have no doubt making changes to the restraint system would get reported, be known to jurors and would probably used in deliberations

You should have some doubts:
1. This is big news in the theme park community sure, but the average juror 5 years from now isn’t going to know or remember anything about this from the news; and
2. This evidence likely isn’t coming in for the reasons stated upthread.

That said this is all academic because this never goes to trial.

It likely won’t ever be filed, if it is then it would not survive a motion to dismiss or a motion for summary judgment. In other words, this will never see a jury.

lol, this may never be filed because they settle, and this almost certainly settles before any trial, but a death on a rollercoaster by blunt force trauma absolutely survives a motion for summary judgment.

Especially in an Orlando area court.

Not on these facts it doesn’t. Plaintiff has a weak argument.

You have no idea what the facts are other than the plaintiff died of multiple impact blunt force trauma on a roller coaster.
