The trial: [Marcus v. FedEx Ground Transport](https://cvn.com/proceedings/marcus-iii-et-al-v-nkm-transportation-et-al-trial)

 

The attorney: Lee Blalack

 

Case summary: Sari Marcus died, and her infant daughter was injured in a rollover crash that occurred when Marcus lost control of her car as she swerved to avoid a parked FedEx delivery truck. Plaintiffs contend the truck was negligently parked, while the defense contends the truck was safely parked under the circumstances.   

 

Synopsis: Blalack highlights testimony of Jeffrey Boesger - who he points out was the only expert on commercial transportation and safety at trial - and his conclusion that the FedEx driver followed appropriate industry standards, and FedEx's own guidelines, in parking on the residential street at issue in order to make a delivery. 

 

The verdict: For the defense.
