City of Innsbruck: Sacrifice of the tree fall must now also pay!

Innsbruck, Österreich - On March 22, 2021, a tragic incident occurred in Innsbruck when a 49-year-old woman was hit by a 17-meter-high robinia tree. In doing so, she contracted serious head injuries and fell in a weekly coma. Today, after her recovery, she suffers from the long -term consequences and has sued the city of Innsbruck for damages. It stated that inadequate controls of the tree are responsible for their accident. But the courts rejected their lawsuit in all instances, as reported 5min.at . Now the woman has to bear an additional over 15,000 euros in the city's legal fees.

The city of Innsbruck was acquitted of any fault. Stephan Crepaz, the head of the city's legal department, said that all necessary measures were taken to check. He also emphasized that a financial accommodation of the city was excluded in order to prevent a possible rush to prevent similar demands: "That would be the opening of the pandora's box." Despite her defeat, the woman does not give up and has now sued the court expert, whose report had relieved the city. Your lawyer hopes to take another legal step through your legal protection insurance in order to be compensated for the health and financial consequences of the tragic incident, reported tirol.orf .
