Indiana Supreme Court Approves Lawsuit
Indiana Supreme Court Says Truckers Can Move Forward with Lawsuit Against Amazon
INDIANAPOLIS — The Indiana Supreme Court has cleared a path for a lawsuit against Amazon.
The case stems from an incident at their Hancock County warehouse, where two truck drivers were struck by vehicles while navigating the busy area outside. The consequences were devastating.
One of the drivers tragically lost his life, while the other sustained severe injuries that will impact him for the rest of his life.
Their attorney argues that Amazon’s failure to provide adequate signage and clearly defined entry points directly contributed to the accident.
Reversing a previous lower court ruling, the Indiana Supreme Court has rejected Amazon’s appeal.
This decision means the lawsuit can now move forward into the trial preparation phase in Hamilton County. For the families of these drivers, this ruling offers a step towards seeking accountability from the global retail giant for the losses they have endured.
