From Bill Mears MARSHFIELD, Vermont (CNN) — When Diana Winn Levine wants to play a guitar, she needs the assistance of her daughter, Jessamine. While one strums, the other fingers the notes. It’s an awkward arrangement but it works. At the end, Levine raises a empowering fist salute, but it’s a phantom gesture. Her hand is not there. Levine went to get treated for a severe migraine in April 2000, and weeks later left a hospital without her arm below the elbow. Now the Supreme Court will decide whether the professional musician can keep a nearly $7 million jury award, in an important business case with broad implications for consumers and corporations alike. Arguments in the case are set for Monday. |
