Description: Spokane, Washington personal injury truck wreck lawyer represented Plaintiff, who sued Defendants on auto negligence theories claiming to have suffered more than $75,000 in damages and/or injuries.


On December 12, 2018, a tractor-trailer owned by Defendant Mack Truck Lines, Inc. and driven by Jaspreet Singh (deceased), jackknifed on Interstate 90 in Lincoln County, Washington, causing a complete blockage of both westbound lanes. Id. at 1, ¶ 1; ECF No. 12 at 3, ¶ 9. Due to the position of the vehicle thereafter, neither the headlights nor the taillights of the trailer were visible to traffic traveling in a westerly direction. ECF No. 30 at 2, ¶ 2. The second tractortrailer involved in the accident was owned by Defendant Artudianti, Inc. and driven by Defendant Dachi Gogoladze. Id. at ¶ 4. Mr. Gogoladze was traveling in a westerly direction when he came upon Mr. Singh's trailer, but without the ability to see the headlights or taillights, Mr. Gogoladze was not able to stop in time to avoid colliding with Mr. Singh's trailer. Id. at ¶ 5. Plaintiff was a passenger in Mr. Gogoladze's trailer at the time of the accident. ECF No. 12 at 3, ¶ 9. No other facts relating to the accident are presently before the Court.

"Plaintiff alleges negligence causes of action against all four defendants. Id. at 4-5. Defendants Artudianti, Inc. and Dachi Gogoladze move for summary judgment on the grounds that Plaintiff's claims will fail at trial without expert "witnesses, which Plaintiff has failed to disclose. ECF No. 29. Plaintiff did not respond to the motion. As such, the Court considers all facts contained herein undisputed and admitted." Janiashvili v. Mack Truck Lines Inc. (E.D. Wash. 2022)
