Description

A helicopter owned by plaintiff Combined Communications Corporation (KUSA) collided with electrical transmission lines owned by defendant Public Service Company of Colorado (PSC). The pilot, the husband of plaintiff Sharon Speegle, and a passenger, the husband of Karen Hostetler, were killed in the crash. Thereafter, each plaintiff filed a separate action to recover damages for property damage and wrongful death from PSC. Pursuant to an order of a panel on multi-district litigation, the three separate actions were consolidated and assigned to the Denver District Court. At the Conclusion of a jury trial, verdicts were returned in favor of all three plaintiffs, and the court entered judgments on those verdicts in the total amount of approximately $2,900,000. PSC appeals; plaintiffs have instituted a cross-appeal that they seek to press only if we determine that a new trial must be ordered. We affirm the judgments, but remand for a recalculation of the amounts of the judgments in favor of the individual plaintiffs.
