The parents of Kiersten Smith, the 29-year-old woman killed in the collapse, are the first to go to trial; several former residents also have sued, seeking...
The trial, which has spanned roughly two weeks, is over a lawsuit that alleges the defendants — Greystar, the company that owned the Elan City Lights complex, and Bigge Crane and Rigging, the company that leased Greystar the crane and supplied its operator — “acted with flagrant and malicious disregard” toward tenants’ safety.
He told the jury that the majority of negligence should fall on the development company and building owners, not Bigge. Itkin said earlier in the trial the crane was not “weathervaned” the day of the collapse — which would have allowed it to move with the wind during the storm — so it took the full brunt of the wind. Greystar’s attorneys have also said it was not weathervaned.
Jurors have been asked to decide whether the companies named in the lawsuit were working together or separately, whether negligence caused Smith’s death, and whether there should be punitive damages.
