For those who might not remember, last June a Walmart truck rear-ended Tracy Morgan‘s limo bus which tragically killed McNair and left Morgan with serious injuries.
After it was discovered that the Walmart employee was at fault for the crash due to speeding, the McNair family won a settlement from the company.
While the settlement figure wasn’t disclosed, McNair’s loved ones are happy with the outcome.
An attorney for the family said:
“Walmart accepted their responsibility by making this family more than whole. They caused extensive damage to this family and more than stepped up to the plate and took care of this family. Ultimately they did the right thing by the McNairs.”
We’re glad the McNair family is being taken care of.
A spokesperson for Walmart added:
“We know there is nothing we can do to change what happened to Mr.McNair but Walmart and his family have worked closely together to reach an agreement. We will continue to work to conclude all of the remaining issues as a result of the accident and we are committed to doing what is right.”
Kudos to the retailer for stepping up to the plate — James’ family needs all the help they can get!
