The Minneapolis Star Tribune (6/23, Levy) reports on a case before the Minnesota Court of Appeals in which Burlington Northern Santa Fe is appealing “a record $21.6 million” verdict awarded “to the families of four young people killed in a 2003 train-car accident in Anoka,” MN.
BNSF attorney Sam Hanson said that Washington County Judge Ellen Maas’ “failure ‘to eliminate Minnesota state common law and replace it with federal regulations’ when instructing the jury at the start of the trial ‘entitled’ BNSF to a new trial, based on federal preemption.”
