A federal appeals court upheld a $3.1 million verdict last month for the wrongful death of a young woman involved in a motor vehicle accident. The suit was brought against Lincoln County Health System and an ambulance driver by the family of Dianna Bowden, an 18 year old who was killed when her car was struck by an ambulance. The driver was speeding at 81 miles per hour when he crashed into Bowden's vehicle. The ambulance was not on an emergency call at the time of the crash.
