In August of 2007 Demetria S. Powell, 26, was killed at the scene when a dump truck filled with dirt hit the side of her car and pushed her into a metal utility pole. The dump truck driver, Benjamin D. Millwood, was accused of running a red light and hitting Powell’s Toyota Camry.
Demetria Powell’s mother, Teresa J. Powell, filed the lawsuit in September 2007 on behalf of her daughter. The settlement terms were disclosed by a court order entered last month.
According to the order, the lawsuit was settled for $399,000, but neither the dump truck owner nor the driver admitted liability when they agreed to let their insurance carrier pay the settlement.
