Anthony Jackson has filed a lawsuit against Carlos Contreras, alleging negligence following a vehicular collision that resulted in serious bodily injuries. The complaint was filed by Anthony Jackson on January 10, 2025, in the District Court of Harris County, Texas, naming Carlos Contreras as the defendant.
The incident at the heart of this legal battle occurred on February 2, 2024. According to the complaint, Jackson was traveling through Harris County when Contreras allegedly caused a collision. The plaintiff asserts that this crash led to significant injuries and damages. In his filing, Jackson accuses Contreras of failing to exercise reasonable care while operating his vehicle. Specifically, he claims that Contreras did not maintain a proper lookout for safety, failed to yield appropriately, and drove at an excessive speed under the circumstances.
Jackson's petition outlines several specific allegations of negligence against Contreras. These include failing to keep a safe distance from Jackson's vehicle and not applying brakes timely or effectively to avoid the collision. As a result of these alleged failures, Jackson suffered severe physical injuries and incurred substantial medical expenses.
The plaintiff is seeking monetary relief exceeding $250,000 but not more than $1 million. This amount is intended to cover past and future medical expenses, physical pain and suffering both past and future, loss of earnings and earning capacity, mental anguish, physical impairment, and property damage resulting from the accident.
