Mary Bernal, represented by Harris Personal Injury Lawyers, Inc., has filed a lawsuit against Steven Molho and 20 unidentified defendants in the Superior Court of California, County of Santa Clara. The case, bearing the ID 24CV435020, was filed on April 10, 2024.
The plaintiff alleges that on May 9, 2022, in San Jose, California, the defendants acted negligently causing a collision that resulted in serious injuries to her. The lawsuit suggests that the defendants were operating their vehicle in an unsafe manner at the time of the accident.
The complaint further asserts that all defendants were acting within their employment scope during the incident. This detail is crucial as it implies potential employer liability under the doctrine of respondeat superior.
Bernal seeks damages for negligence and for the severe injuries she sustained from the accident. She believes each defendant holds some responsibility for her damages and aims to amend her complaint once she ascertains their true identities and capacities.
