The Supreme Court on Tuesday declined to intervene in a lawsuit that resulted in a $13 million punitive damages award against Chrysler LLC. The case stemmed from a 2001 rear-end collision that resulted in the death of an 8-month-old boy. The lawsuit claimed that the front passenger seat of the Dodge Caravan in which the boy was riding collapsed, resulting in a fatal skull fracture. A Tennessee appeals court had previously ruled to uphold the damages against Chrysler.
