A Disney Cruise Line worker was awarded $4 million by a jury after she claimed that she got inadequate medical care from ship doctors after she was hit by a car during a port of call.
The Brevard County jury ordered the cruise line to pay Maria Ana Reis Martins $2 million for lost earnings, $1 million for pain and suffering, and $1 million for punishment.
It is the first time that Disney Cruise Line has lost a personal injury case involving a ship worker in a jury trial, said Julio Ayala, Martins’ attorney.
