Lawsuit claims guardrails contain dangerous part
2014-10-14 09:28:26| Railroads - Topix.net
The Iowa Department of Transportation is keeping a close eye on guardrails in the state, especially after a lawsuit claims some of Iowa's guardrails contain a part that can make them dangerous. The DOT said the guardrails are installed to protect drivers from running off the road, but the lawsuit claims a certain part installed at the end of a guardrail can act like a spear and take off someone's limbs.

Lawsuit against Evergreen Helicopters over deadly Peruvian crash will play out in Oregon
2014-10-14 05:28:18| Air Courier - Topix.net
A lawsuit brought against Evergreen Helicopters Inc. by survivors of eight Peruvians killed in a 2008 helicopter crash will play out in Oregon courts rather than in Peru, where the crash occurred. Last week's decision by the Oregon Court of Appeals is a loss for Evergreen - now a subsidiary of Portland-based Erickson Inc. - after winning an earlier lower-court victory when Multnomah Circuit Court granted its motions to dismiss the suit saying Peru was the more convenient forum to litigate the case.
