Busines Law

Factual Analysis on the topic of Negligence. Ernie Eckert was arguing with his wife while driving. When he looked down to turn on the radio in effort to make her be quiet, he didn't notice Fernando Feliz and accidentally knocked Mr. Feliz, a 70-year old man, off his bicycle. At the time, Mr. Feliz was riding his bike, cutting across the street in the middle of the block, where there was no crosswalk. Mr. Feliz broke his arm and hurt his neck. Because of a rare disease, there was little chance that the break would heal properly if at all. In effect, unlike most who might suffer these injuries, Mr. Feliz had permanently lost the use of his right arm. Mr. Feliz was right-handed person who occasionally made some money by playing flamenco guitar in local clubs.
