A California man who suffered permanent brain damage after police shocked him with a Taser has reached a first-ever product liability settlement with the stun-gun company. Santa Cruz County Superior Court Judge Jeff Almquist refused to seal court documents detailing the settlement Thursday over the objections of Taser International Inc. The Scottsdale, Ariz.-based company agreed to pay 49-year-old Steven Butler $2.85 million but admitted no liability for the injury Butler suffered. 

A Watsonville police officer used a Taser to subdue Butler in 2006 when he refused to get off a bus. Butler was drunk and off his psychiatric medication at the time.

A Henry M. Gunn High School student who was thrown out of an unsecured city-bus door and tumbled onto El Camino Real in 2007 has settled a lawsuit for $125,000, according to court documents. Rodolfo Flores and his mother, Virginia Garcia, reached an agreement with the Peninsula Corridor Joint Powers Board (Caltrain), Parking Company of America of Downey, Calif., and shuttle driver Martha Lorena Cachiro on June 8. A Santa Clara County Superior Court judge is scheduled to formally dismiss the case today (Aug. 12).

Flores, then 15 years old, was a passenger on the crowded Palo Alto Shuttle when the accident occurred June 4, 2007. The 22-seat bus is part of the city's bus system, which includes the Crosstown Shuttle, on which Flores was traveling.

The maker of an instrument used in circumcisions claimed that injury was impossible with its use, but after an infant lost a portion of his penis during an operation with the Mogen clamp, a judge awarded $10.8 million in damages against the company. The judgment handed down Friday in New York involves an Atlanta lawyer who has been crusading against circumcision as a dangerous and unnecessary practice.

Attorney David Llewellyn won a similar case in Atlanta last year and the injury behind that prior lawsuit in Fulton County Superior Court put the New York clamp manufacturer on notice about the danger of the device, his current lawsuit said. The baby in the current case, identified in court documents only as L.G., lost the entire glans, or head, of his penis after it was pulled into the jaws of the clamp, according to a federal magistrate's order. On Friday, U.S. District Judge Jack B. Weinstein ordered Mogen Circumcision Instruments of New York to pay $10.8 million in compensatory and punitive damages to the Florida boy, now 3, and his parents.
