This verdict does not include the mother’s claim. She settled her case separately. The verdict was in 2005. The case is Cabrera v. Eller Media.
My thoughts: The jury basically awarded $111,000 per year for the pain and suffering that the father has and will have from his son’s death. I got this amount because the life expectancy of a man is about 77 years old.

wrongful death settlements Florida. Yes, Disney will pay ...[/quote]

These numbers are NOTHING for Disney. On average, there are 50k visitors to just the Magic Kingdom daily; if on average they're paying $75/ticket (and I think it's higher than that) -- that's $3.75 million in 1 day ticket revenue at 1 park. 1 or 1.5 days of ticket revenues at 2 parks pays off the settlement or any jury award easily.[/quote]
