Statement of Case:
Plaintiff Nathan Caraway hired Sun Concrete Pumping Company to provide concrete pumping services for the construction of a concrete vault. Nathan Caraway claims that on June 12, 2018, while in the process of pouring concrete for the vault project with the pump, hose, and equipment supplied by Sun Concrete Pumping Company, the pumping equipment either failed or its operator was negligent, causing Nathan Caraway to be covered with wet concrete. Nathan Caraway claims the concrete splattered on him resulted in bums and other injuries. As a result, Nathan Caraway seeks damages from Sun Concrete Pumping Company. Sun Concrete Pumping Company denies it was negligent and alleges Nathan Caraway was negligent and responsible for his injuries. |
