Kadeem Livingston filed a lawsuit Nov. 28 in Jefferson County District Court against Erik Anotnio Burgos.

In his complaint, Livingston claims he drove west in the 3700 block of 32nd Street when he slowed for traffic. Suddenly, Burgos failed to control his speed and struck Livingston's vehicle, according to the complaint.

In addition to his medical costs, Livingston experienced physical pain, suffering and physical impairment because of the collision, the suit states.

Travis McCall of McCall and McCall in Beaumont will be representing him.
