Une femme blessée par une rondelle de hockey il y a 10 ans recevra plus d’un million $

 

Une femme blessée par une rondelle de hockey il y a 10 ans recevra plus d’un million $



Une femme blessée par une rondelle lors d’un match de hockey sur patins à roues alignées il y a 10 ans, à Langford, sur l’île de Vancouver, devra recevoir plus d’un million de dollars, selon la Cour d’appel de la Colombie-Britannique.

( )

Sherry Lynn Matthews avait poursuivi la Ville de Langford, l'exploitant de l’aréna dans lequel avait eu lieu le match et l’équipe de hockey locale. La décision de justice avait ensuite fait l'objet d'un appel, les défendeurs arguant que le montant versé était disproportionné par rapport aux blessures et aux salaires de Sherry Lynn Matthews.

Mais jeudi, la Cour d'appel de la Colombie-Britannique a accepté à l'unanimité de rejeter l'appel.

( )

Nous nous réjouissons de la décision de la Cour d'appel de la Colombie-Britannique, qui marque la fin d'une longue saga juridique pour Mme Matthews, commentait son avocat, Keith SchilleLa décision reconnaît à juste titre les blessures et les pertes profondes subies par Mme Matthews au cours de la dernière décennie.

( )

En 2014, Sherry Lynn Matthews était assise dans les gradins et regardait son fils jouer à un match hockey sur patins à roues alignées lorsqu'un palet est passé à travers le filet de sécurité. La femme, âgée de 60 ans au moment des faits, a été touchée à l'œil droit, apprenait-on lors du jugement de l’affaire, en 2023, devant la Cour suprême de la Colombie-Britannique.

Dans les jours qui ont suivi, Sherry Lynn Matthews a eu des nausées, des maux de tête et une sensibilité à la lumière, selon les dossiers du tribunal.

( )

Des experts médicaux ont déclaré qu'elle avait subi un traumatisme craniocérébral léger, entraînant un trouble neurocognitif et d'autres problèmes de santé.

Sa famille et un ancien collègue ont également déclaré que sa personnalité avait changé après l'incident.

Plus d'emploi depuis 2 ans

Ne s’estimant plus compétente dans son emploi, Sherry Lynn Matthews aurait décidé de le quitter en 2019. Elle a ensuite travaillé à temps partiel comme fleuriste, mais ne travaille plus depuis 2 ans, selon les documents de justice.

( )

L’ancien directeur du développement des entreprises de la société dans laquelle Sherry Lynn Matthews a travaillé a mentionné devant le tribunal que cette dernière avait une carrière très prometteuse en tant que représentante commerciale.

Un jury a accordé à Mme Matthews 1,05 million de dollars, dont 804 000 dollars au titre de la perte de capacité de gain, et 175 000 dollars au titre des douleurs et des souffrances.


La Ville de Langford et les autres parties poursuivies ont contesté ces deux paiements spécifiques, affirmant que l'indemnité pour perte de salaire ne correspondait pas à ses revenus antérieurs et que l'autre paiement n'était pas proportionnel à la situation de Sherry Lynn Matthews.

La ville de Langford et les autres parties poursuivies n'ont pas répondu aux demandes de commentaires

Offaly end golden week with Joe McDonagh Cup final win against Laois

 

Offaly end golden week with Joe McDonagh Cup final win against Laois



Glorious redemption for Offaly at Croke Park and the cherry placed on top of a terrific week for hurling in the Faithful County.

( )

Goals at the beginning of both halves from Brian Duignan, who top-scored with 1-04, and substitute Oisin Kelly, fired Offaly to a first ever Joe McDonagh Cup title - securing their return to the Liam MacCarthy Cup for the first time since 2018.

A week after the county's much-celebrated All-Ireland U-20 win, it was another dramatic breakthrough success, though the sides were tied for the 11th time in an epic encounter at the 70-minute mark.

Three points in-a-row from Killian Sampson, Charlie Mitchell and Jack Clancy ultimately won it for Johnny Kelly's side who went one better than last year's agonising final defeat to Carlow.

( )

Aside from securing their place in the Leinster championship for 2025, a more immediate reward for Offaly is an All-Ireland preliminary quarter-final clash with Cork in Tullamore next Saturday.

All is not lost this season for Laois who will have the opportunity to make progress in the All-Ireland series too when they take on Wexford in Portlaoise.

Laois, winners of the McDonagh Cup in 2019, gave it everything they had and twice bounced back from slow starts to each half and goal concessions by drawing level, but they couldn't repeat their group stage win over their neighbours.

( )

Offaly boss Kelly made 11 changes from the experimental side that beat Down in the final round robin game, naming four of the U-20s that competed in last weekend's landmark win over Tipperary.

Duignan was one of the four Offaly players retained from the line-up against Down and his second minute goal came as a giant boost to the favourites.

Dan Bourke won possession after a Laois puck-out was turned over and when he played in Duignan the Durrow man had only the net on his mind.

( )

Duignan added a sixth-minute point and at that stage Offaly led by 1-03 to 0-01, a blistering start that brought back memories of Charlie Mitchell's early goal in last year's decider against Carlow.

Offaly, of course, failed to win that one 12 months ago and their big early lead was reeled in this time too, as Laois belatedly found their range.

( )

Five Laois points in-a-row between the seventh and 14th minutes tied it up at 0-06 to 1-03.

Purcell got one of those points and it was quickly becoming evident that the Laois midfield of Purcell and Corby was on top in their sector.

Noa Argamani among 4 hostages rescued from Gaza, Israeli forces say: live updates

 

Noa Argamani among 4 hostages rescued from Gaza, Israeli forces say: live updates


Israel's military and security services rescued four hostages alive from two separate locations in the central Gaza area of al-Nuseirat on Saturday, in what was described as a complex daytime operation.

()

The four hostages, three men and one woman, were kidnapped by Hamas-led militants from the Nova music festival in southern Israel on Oct. 7 last year. They were identified by Israel's Defense Forces as Noa Argamani, 26; Almog Meir Jan, 22; Andrey Kozlov, 27; and Shlomi Ziv, 41.

The military said they appeared to be in good health and were being taken to a hospital for further health checks.

( )

"They are back home in Israel. They are alive. They are well," IDF Spokesperson Daniel Hagari said in a briefing.

All four hostages were taken captive by Hamas militants on Oct. 7, when about 1,200 Israeli civilians were killed and an estimated over 250 were taken hostage. Israeli authorities estimate about 116 of the hostages are left in Gaza, 40 of whom are believed dead.

( )

In the devastating siege by Israel's military on Gaza that followed, over 36,800 Palestinians have been killed and 83,680 have been injured, the health ministry in Gaza said Saturday, including dozens who were killed and injured in the last day.

( )

Latest developments:

∎ Families of the eight American hostages still captive in Gaza praised the IDF for its rescue operation Saturday, and said in a statement: "Until every individual is safely returned home, our commitment and efforts must not waver. We urge President Biden, world leaders, and the international community to continue their relentless pursuit to return each hostage to their loved ones where they belong.”

( )

Colombia President Gustavo Petro said it will stop exporting coal to Israel, "until the genocide is stopped," in a social media post Saturday.

Who is Noa Argamani?

Argamani was one of several hostages kidnapped from the Nova music festival in southern Israel when Hamas militants attacked Israel on Oct. 7.
