Moss v. Hartman CA4/2
This appeal arises from an automobile accident involving plaintiff Neco Moss, defendants Juan Manuel Orozco and Robert Henry Hartman, and two other motorists who aren’t involved in the litigation.
The accident occurred on May 15, 2013, on the eastbound 210 freeway in Fontana. According to Orozco and Hartman, Orozco crossed a double yellow line to enter the carpool lane at a relatively low speed in the path of Hartman’s truck. Hartman struck Orozco’s vehicle, which started a chain reaction—Orozco hitting Moss, Moss hitting a fourth vehicle, and the fourth vehicle hitting a fifth.
Moss sued Hartman and Orozco for, among other things, negligence, and represented himself at trial, as he does on appeal. A jury found Hartman was not negligent and found Orozco had been negligent but awarded no damages.
Moss appeals, arguing the trial judge committed several errors.
