Gibson Dunn Will Fight Court’s $13.4 Million Reversal in Crash Case

Posted on Tuesday 29 July 2008

Theodore Boutrous Jr. of Gibson, Dunn & Crutcher finds himself in the middle of a nationally watched punitive damages case after a closely divided Tennessee Supreme Court reversed a lower court and upheld a $13.4 million award to a mother whose infant son died in a 2001 car crash. "I think this is the largest yo-yo effect I've ever seen on any case," says Boutrous. He plans to appeal the punitive damages verdict to the U.S. Supreme Court.
