For [Mohamed S. Hamieh] the real value of his invention is decreasing the amount of suffering in people. "You drive a vehicle knowing that you are in a safer place. And when you know you're driving a safer vehicle, you drive safer. The most important thing is eliminating suffering for human beings," Hamieh said. To me the value of having a patent like this, honestly, it's like more than any money can speak of," Hamieh said. "In fact, the number one concern as an engineer and I think I speak on behalf of every engineer is to make safe products for people to drive in. And to make safe products for everyday use.

MADISON, Wis. - A Wisconsin man can sue a former girlfriend's insurer for the wrongful death of their fetus, which was stillborn after the woman was in a car accident, a court ruled Thursday. Shannon Tesar, the father of the fetus, claims the woman's negligent driving was partly to blame for the 2003 accident in Wisconsin Rapids. He has filed a lawsuit seeking damages for his pain and suffering for the loss of his would-be child against the woman's auto insurer, American Family Mutual Insurance Co.
Civ.R. 59(A)(6); trial court did not abuse its discretion when it ordered a new trial on a finding that the jury’s award of zero damages for pain and suffering was against the weight of the evidence; the court abused its discretion when it ordered a retrial of independent issues the jury had determined that were unaffected by the defect the court found, and should have limited the retrial to the pain and suffering issue only; the court abused its discretion in admitting a hearsay document pursuant to Evid.R. 803(10) absent a proper authentication, but the prejudice resulting was so slight that the error was harmless. Judgment reversed, in part, and remanded.
