Prins-Stairs v. Anden Group

District of Columbia Court of Appeals

Decided January 31, 1995No. 93-CV-1614PublishedCited by 8 opinions

1Per curiam

Appellant Jenelle Prins-Stairs and her husband sued appellees for negligence and (the husband’s) loss of consortium arising from an automobile accident which occurred in November 1988, in which a vehicle driven by an employee of appellee Anden Group struck the rear of a car driven by Ms. Prins-Stairs. Appellees conceded negligence (i.e., breach of duty of care), but vigorously contested the issue of proximate causation. A jury found for appellees and awarded appellants no damages, expressly finding that Ms. Prins-Stairs had not been injured as a result of the negligence of appellees.
