On Friday, May 25, 2007 a trial will begin for Joseph L. Garcia’s negligence lawsuit against the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority. Mr. Garcia was a passenger in an MTA bus driven by co-defendant Sylvia Delana Fairfax which struck a parked vehicle, causing him to violently strike his head within the interior of the bus and which resulted in severe and permanent injury to his brain. His attorneys will argue that the MTA is clearly liable for Mr. Garcia’s injuries because it licensed and permitted an inadequately trained individual to drive an MTA bus.
