In the District Court of Harris County, Texas, plaintiff Cheryl A. Joe has filed a lawsuit against defendants Angel Rigoberto Reyes and Geico County Mutual Insurance Company. The case, bearing the ID 2024-25188, was filed on April 19, 2024.
The lawsuit alleges that on August 29, 2022, defendant Reyes, who was uninsured or underinsured at the time, failed to control his speed and collided with a Metro Bus operated by plaintiff Joe. The incident occurred in the 11300 block of Veterans Memorial Dr., resulting in injuries to the plaintiff. Defendant Geico is implicated as it had issued an insurance policy to the plaintiff which was in effect at the time of the accident.
The insurance policy provided uninsured and underinsured motorist coverage to the plaintiff amounting to $50,001 per person and personal injury protection coverage of $2,501 per person. The plaintiff accuses Reyes of negligence for failing to control his speed among other things and seeks monetary relief over $250,000 but not more than $1,000,000.
