Tanaka v Gill
On March 8, 2023, the judge released supplemental reasons for judgment addressing the requests for clarification and reconsideration of the motor vehicle action trial. The plaintiff had sought an increased award for future loss of earning capacity based on revised income figures, while the defendants had argued for a reduction due to the plaintiff's failure to mitigate. The judge agreed to increase the award to $425,000 to account for the plaintiff's actual income in 2022. However, the judge refused the defendants' request for a reduction, stating that the failure to mitigate had a limited impact on the plaintiff's recovery.
