NY woman's $2m crash award faces retrial unless she accepts $1.35m

In a surprising turn of events, a New York appeals court has invalidated a $2 million jury award for Estela Larrea, who experienced significant pain following a car accident with Sanitation Salvage Corp. The court ruled that the original sum was disproportionate to similar cases. Larrea now faces a choice: accept a lowered offer of $1.35 million within 30 days or face a fresh trial on damage compensation.
