Description
What began as a normal day for nineteen-year-old Richard Pack ended with his death shortly after an altercation outside his apartment with Chicago Police Officers M.L. Moore and Garland D. Price. Packs mother, Ina Carter, individually and as administratrix of his estate, filed suit against Moore, Price, and the City of Chicago alleging that the officers used excessive force during their encounter with Pack and deprived him of his Fourth Amendment right to be free from unreasonable searches and seizures and that Moore, Price, and the City of Chicago were liable under the Illinois Wrongful Death Statute and for tortious assault and battery under Illinois law. The jury found in favor of Carter as to Moore and against Carter as to Price on both the excessive force and unreasonable seizure claims. It found against Carter as to all of the defendants on the state law claims for wrongful death and assault and battery. The jury awarded Carter $50,000 in damages on the excessive force claim and $50,000 in damages on the unreasonable seizure claim. On appeal, Carter presents two issues to this Court. First, she claims the District Court committed reversible error by failing to instruct the jury as to the definition of proximate cause. Second, she contends the District Court erred by failing to grant her a new trial based on her contention that the jurys verdict was inconsistent and the result of jury compromise. Because we find that Carter waived her objection to the District Courts failure to provide the jury with a definition of proximate cause and the verdict was neither inconsistent nor the result of jury compromise, we affirm the judgment of the District Court.
