Case Summary

5027 REVIEW DENIED. In a case against a county for unsafe roads, a severely injured motorist did not comply with Tort Claims Act 6 months period for presentation of a claim and relied on excusable neglect as an exception to the 6 months period; fact that plaintiff failed to consult with lawyer did not defeat her reliance on excusable neglect.
