Question:
Sixteen-year-old Michelle and her friend decided to cross railroad tracks, after noticing a Conrail train had stopped 200 feet from the crossing. Conrail trains conductor and brakeman knew the peril, but rather than posting a flagman who could have stopped traffic when the train approached, they walked to the far end of the train to make repairs. A freight train struck the car broadside, killing both girls instantly. Michelle's mother sued Conrail for negligence.
Let's say Michelle's estate suffered $1 million in damages.
How much would Michelle's estate recover in North Carolina if the court found the plaintiff (Michelle) was 40% responsible?
