C.H. Robinson appeals $604 million judgment in fatal truck crash case
CHRW•C.H. Robinson is appealing a $604 million judgment over a 2021 crash that killed four people; the judge affirmed the jury’s ruling.
1. Appeal of crash judgment
A jury held C.H. Robinson, the carrier and the driver liable for the 2021 crash. C.H. Robinson disputes liability, arguing it did not employ or control the driver and selected a carrier with the highest federal safety rating. The appeals process could overturn, reduce or modify the award, and the current judgment does not determine the company’s ultimate payment.
