Walt Disney World v. Wood | Disney World
Walt Disney World Co. v. Wood, 489 So. 2d 61 (Fla. Dist. Ct. App. 1986) is a court decision by the Florida District Court of Appeal illustrating the principle of joint and several liability.
In 1971, Aloysia Wood was injured on the Grand Prix bumper-car ride at Walt Disney World when her then-fiance, Daniel Wood, rammed his car into the rear of hers. The jury assessed her damages at $75,000. The jury then returned a verdict finding Aloysia Wood 14% at fault, Daniel Wood 85% at fault, and Disney 1% at fault. [1] The court ordered Disney to pay 86% of the damages - its percentage plus the husband’s percentage - because the husband was unable to pay his portion.
This case is sometimes cited in calls for tort reform.
