California jury awards millions in Amtrak lawsuit that left man 
legless - how much will he get?

A Sacramento jury returned a $28.6 million verdict Friday for a 
California man who lost his legs to an Amtrak train six years ago as 
he lay on railroad tracks near Marysville.  

The jury found varying degrees of negligence by Amtrak, Marysville´s 
Rideout Memorial Hospital and Dr. Hector Lopez, as well as negligence 
by Joseph Nevis, the 34-year-old man who sued after the 2016 
Christmas Eve double amputation.  

The actual amount Nevis will receive still has to be determined 
because of medical malpractice limits and other calculations, but 
Nevis is expected to receive millions of dollars to help him make his 
way through life with his devastating injuries.
