Honda Expert Caught Destroying Evidence

The public is baraged by attacks on the civil justice system. Most often, those attacks are made by politicians who rely on big business and the insurnace industry for their political life.

Rarely are the antics of big business in litigation exposed.

Now, thanks to the fine legal team at Trial Lawyers for Public Justice a devastating opinion from a judge against Honda and one of its experts has been unsealed.

TV screenwriters could not have written a more rivetting plot. A 17 year old girl is tragically injured in an accident, allegedly as a result of a defective roof on a Honda vehicle. The issue of whether she was wearing her seat belt is critical to the case and, according to this opinion, Honda's expert witness set out to destroy evidence which would have shown that the seat belts were being worn, then lied about it.

The story doesn't end there. After the court sanctions Honda big time (by saying in essence "you lose this case," Honda settles the case and gets the incriminating order sealed. This expert is allowed to go on testifying in other cases, and no one else is told of his dirty deeds.

Not anymore!

The opinion sanctioning Honda is here.

The order sealing the case is here.

The order unsealing the case is here.
