I don''t know if I would want the actual pain and suffering but being awarded $775K after tripping over a speed bump ...... Wow! (Associated Press) - A woman who tripped on a speed bump and injured her shoulder at a U.S. casino has been awarded $775,000.The Nevada Supreme Court upheld the judgment against Harrahs casino, the Las Vegas Sun reported.Alice Swanson has been seeking compensation since 2007, when she tripped and fell.She said the bump was too high, and a jury agreed.Jurors decided the casino had failed to exercise reasonable care. They awarded Swanson $375,000 for past pain and suffering and $400,000 for future pain and suffering.Harrahs had appealed, saying the jury verdict should be overturned because of a lack of evidence.
