Mealey's (July 7, 2020, 9:58 AM EDT) -- RICHMOND, Va. — The Fourth Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals on June 26 rejected a transportation company’s bid to overturn $5.4 million jury award to a man whose foot was crushed by a falling 2,000-pound metal rod while he was helping load a truck. It affirmed a lower court’s refusal to grant a new trial, holding that any jury instruction errors were harmless (Richard Edwards Jr. v. Cardinal Transport Inc., No. 19-1034, 4th Cir., 2020 U.S. App. LEXIS 20041)....
