We don’t always hear the numbers when cases are settled, so the news release that a $15 million settlement was okayed in Cook County, Illinois seemed to be a noteworthy news byte.
The ruling was in favor of the Chicago restaurant executive Michael Waugh who was killed in a 2006 crash.
Waugh, general manager of Joe’s Seafood, Prime Steak and Stone Crab Restaurant, was en route from Olathe, Kansas, when the Cessna 421B he was in crashed.
A major point in the case was that the plane was piloted by a Morgan Stanley senior financial advisor, who was not a professional pilot.
