Description
Gerald Turner, as administrator, filed this wrongful death action against Alabama Power Company ("Alabama Power") after his
son, Kenneth Turner, who was a truck driver, was electrocuted when the rear door of his parked truck came in contact with
an energized guy wire as he attempted to close the door. A jury found Alabama Power guilty of negligence and awarded Turner
$5,000,000. The trial court entered a final judgment in that amount and, following a hearing consistent with Hammond v. City
of Gadsden, 493 So. 2d 1374 (Ala. 1986), denied Alabama Power's motions for new trial and for j.n.o.v.. Alabama Power contends that the judgment deprives it of its property in violation of the due process clause of the Fourteenth
Amendment of the United States Constitution and Article I, §§ 6 and 13, of the Alabama Constitution; deprives
it of its rights under the Fourth, Fifth, Sixth, and Eighth Amendments of the United States Constitution; and deprives it
of equal protection of the laws.
