FROM: Walter A. Bowser "�--°�� ��a'-3
Assistant City Attorney
DATE: January 16, 1985
RE: Claims against the City of Saint Paul by
John Hanggi and Rose Hanggi
The above claimants request reimbursement for damages and injuries
sustained to John Hanggi ancl Rose Hanggi on August 3 , 1980, as
a result of a motorcycle/police suburban truck accident at or near
the intersection of White Bear Avenue and Orange Street.
The matter was set for a January 14 , 1985 jury trial . John Hanggi
sustained what may be characterized as significant injuries.
Rose Hanggi ' s injury was less significant. The primary issue in
the case was liability. Because of the extent of the injuries it
is possible a jury could award either or both of them a large award
while it is possible a jury could have found no or minimum liability
on the City.
To eliminate the unknown or uncertainty of a possible jury verdict,
this office approves the settlement of these cases by the payment
of $15, 000 to John Hanggi and his attorney and $5, 000 to Rose
Hanggi and her attorney.
