Re: Civil Suit Car Accident

Possibly. You need to discuss this with your trial attorney as that person would be in the best position to know whether there are appealable grounds. However, appeals are very expensive, and it may not be worht your while to pursue an appeal.

There may be other motions that your attorney can bring. Good luck.
