Description
Defendants, the board of education of the city of Chicago (hereinafter the board) and the city of Chicago (hereinafter the city), appeal from a judgment of the circuit court of Cook County. A jury found defendants liable to plaintiff, Daniel Barth, in a personal injury action. The jury awarded plaintiff $2,550,000 in damages, assessing half of the liability to the board and half to the city, for injuries that plaintiff suffered when he did not receive medical treatment for approximately one hour after receiving a blow to his head. Defendants appeal from the judgment entered on the verdict, claiming that both the jury's verdict and its assessment of liability were against the manifest weight of the evidence. We affirm.
