A Pennsylvania federal judge determined Ski Shawnee must produce discovery documents relating to past accidents at the mountain after a young boy was allegedly seriously injured when he crashed into a light pole.

U.S. Magistrate Judge Martin C. Carlson of the Middle District of Pennsylvania ordered Ski Shawnee Inc. to produce documents and communications from Oct. 1 2015, through Jan. 21, 2021, related to all prior accidents involving skiers/snowboarders colliding with light poles/fixed objects on the mountain and ski/snowboard accidents on any terrain park on the mountain, following Katherine and Damian Birl’s motion to produce evidence in their negligence suit against Shawnee.
