Damage Allocation in a Multi-Party Liability Case: A Breakdown of Fault Shares

This text analyzes the allocation of damages in a liability case where multiple parties are involved. With the plaintiff (P) bearing 20% fault and three defendants (D1: 10%, D2: 40%, D3: 30%), total damages amounting to $1,200,000 are considered. Notably, D2 is deemed missing or insolvent, impacting the distribution of remaining liabilities. By recalculating shares among parties based on remaining fault, the document computes recoverable amounts for D1 and D3. This explores legal concepts of fault allocation in civil liability.
