Verdict
2023
Soto v. Los Angeles
The lawsuit revolved around a streetlight cap falling on the plaintiff’s head while he was standing at the crosswalk of Roscoe Blvd. and Noble Ave. in Los Angeles. Post-incident, the plaintiff sought assistance at Vista Middle School and was subsequently diagnosed with a skull fracture and head injury at a hospital. He was released two hours after admission. The plaintiff’s cognitive decline became apparent as he struggled with basic tasks, leading to increasing confusion and behavioral changes. Neurological exams recommended attendance at a cognitive rehabilitative program at CNS, where a nine-month inpatient stay revealed the severity of the decline. By late 2022, the plaintiff faced significant challenges, including the loss of speech, the inability to walk, and suicidal ideations, ultimately relying fully on family members for care by 2023.
Throughout the case, we established that the involved light pole was installed in 2006, with a tree within 5 feet that, over time, interfered with its structure and components, including the cap. Despite municipal codes requiring new tree to be planted within 20 feet of streetlight, the pre-existing tree complicated this determination. In 2013, the City of Los Angeles implemented an LED conversion program, followed by the Vision Zero initiative in 2019, aimed at promoting pedestrian safety. Through litigation, we discovered that the specific light pole in question was part of the Vision Zero plan, featuring a push button installation. Utilizing Google images, we confirmed the existence of seven different light poles with missing caps within a four-block radius of Roscoe and Noble, establishing notice.
