Hyundai had appealed a $4.5 million judgment stemming from a 1995 accident in Coahoma County, reported the Associated Press Saturday.
A jury in 2009 cited the automobile manufacturer for defect in a 1993 Excel that was involved in the accident in which three people died.
According to the AP reports, on Thursday, the Supreme Court ruled Hyundai deserved a new trial because 1 of the plaintiffs’ experts changed the method he used to reach the conclusion that Hyundai was at fault for the accident.
