The Bancorpsouth lawsuit, which was brought against Rydal Medical Ltd. by the claimant, Rydal Investments plc, is an example of the litigating parties interacting to determine the scope of the claim. The medical claims were that the claimant, who was suffering from a condition termed “Sickle Cell Disease” was unfit for work due to the fact that he/she had a lower than average number of red blood cells in the body. As per the relevant rules and regulations, the company was responsible for monitoring this count. The company, however, failed to make arrangements for the claimant’s admission to work or necessary laboratory work in order to confirm the effect of his/her sick leave.

The company then filed a personal injury claim against the claimant under the law of the UK. The claimants’ personal injury claim was then evaluated by a panel of three experts, including a registrar of solicitors. The claim was accepted by the court and the case was presented to the court’s Bench of Justice. The claimants were granted compensation based upon their actual loss suffered as a direct result of the negligent act or omission of the company. The Court held that the company had failed to make arrangements necessary for its employee to continue working despite knowing that it would cause him personal injury.
However, there were two issues for the Court to consider before awarding compensation.
First, the Court had to establish that the conduct of the employer had in any event been contrary to the law. The second issue was that the claim should be allowed consistent with the national rules applicable to personal injury claims. The Court ultimately concluded that both issues were irrelevant to the validity of the claim. The Court therefore found that Bancorpsouth had in fact established a legitimate claim for compensation for its loss as a direct result of the negligent act or omission of the employer.
Bancorpsouth lawsuit has therefore laid the ground for more serious claims against the employers.
However, the claimant must now establish that he/she is suffering from a personal injury because of the company’s negligence. This means that the claimant must be in a state of constant pain and suffering. These claims are increasingly popular nowadays as they help the claimant get monetary assistance and emotional support.
The Bancorpsouth lawsuit is not the only personal injury case currently going on.
There are ongoing similar claims against various companies from Dunmow and East Suffolk. Each of these cases is different in terms of the legal background and therefore the compensation sought. In the case of Dunmow, the claim is made on the basis of a claim for negligence on behalf of the company Foston Petroleum Corporation. The claim was for around twenty-five million pounds, which later increased to fifty million pounds.
For Bancorpsouth, the compensation award will be based on an amount which has been agreed between the two sides.
However, the compensation received will also include costs. The claimant should therefore take care to fully understand the implications of the ruling before making any final decisions on whether to accept the settlement or to continue the case to court. It is important to note that Bancorpsouth, Dunmow and East Suffolk are not limited to the same claimant or their family members.
