A man who was rendered quadriplegic when two of his relatives accidentally tipped over the portable toilet he was using in an attempt to play a practical joke on him has settled with the toilet’s manufacturer and installer, as well as the two relatives, for a total of $5 million in the Sullivan County Court of Common Pleas.
An examination of The Legal’s sibling publication, PaLaw magazine, indicates this is the largest reported settlement in Sullivan County in at least the 20 years since the publication first began tracking the data.
