Wrongful Death
The elimination of this enormous verdict owes to Mr. Jacobs′ active participation in the early stages of this trial, beginning with jury selection where the error that ultimately compelled a reversal in the Michigan Supreme Court was committed. Mr. Jacobs worked hand in hand with the trial attorney to preserve the issue that ultimately carried the day in the Supreme Court of Michigan, which held that plaintiff′s counsel and the trial court committed a constitutional error by using race as a criteria during the jury selection process. The benefit of Mr. Jacobs′ early involvement in this case is further reflected in his fleshing out of the error during post-trial motions where the trial court made a number of inflammatory statements on the record, which were used to help convince the Supreme Court to reverse the $20 million judgment. See Pellegrino v Ampco Sys Parking, 486 Mich 330; 785 NW2d 45 (2010).
