The former owner of the LA Dodgers testified in the $35-million civil trial brought by Bryan Stow and his family after Stow received a beating in the Dodger Stadium parking lot on Opening Weekend 2011. He is suing McCourt for that amount claiming that will cover his costs for lifetime care since Stow has brain damage and is disabled.
Stow's father was the only member of the family to watch the testimony in the negligence case.
McCourt was asked about the security (or perceived lack thereof) and the McCourt camp maintains that intoxication and heated words caused the fight and beating that disabled Stow rather than the lack of security.

Stow's attorneys are saying care could be more in the neighborhood of $50-million.

OSG High: Family Sues Over XC Death
((HT: WGRZ-TV))
The questions are around in the year-old death of a cross country athlete at the New York state championships from November 2012...
A 14-year-old runner fell during the practice sessions and the impact caused him to go into cardiac arrest...
His family is suing for negligence and wrongful death and questions the lack of an AED and an ambulance on site during the championships. The plaintiffs are going to have to prove causation and negligence for the suit to succeed- according to defense attorneys, and the AED issue may be resolved quickly in the discussions...
Here's the case and how it looks early on...
A spokesperson for Erie County issued a statement and it looks like they're trying to distance themselves pretty quickly from all the other parties accused in the case: "While Elma Meadows was the venue for the event, the event you are referring to was held by the NYS Public High School Athletic Association. Prior to the event, Erie County required that they procure insurance naming Erie County as an additional insured, which they did. Accordingly, Erie County is being provided with contractual defense & indemnification in this case under the insurance policy."
