Default judgment awarded to Progressive Premier Insurance for $18,828.46
Summary
Progressive presented its damage calculations for a 2017 Nissan Rogue and the court entered default judgment after defendant failed to answer; the award totaled $18,828.46 (net value difference plus loss-of-use).
Progressive Premier Insurance obtained a default judgment in the case against Giovanni Russell after the defendant failed to answer. Lockley (counsel) elicited testimony from Progressive's managed-repair representative, who identified the fair market value of the 2017 Nissan Rogue as $19,273.03, salvage recovery of $1,597.00, and loss-of-use of $1,152.43. On those figures, counsel asked the court to enter damages.
"In your opinion...the fair market value including tax and title of the 2017 Nissan Rogue? $19,273.03," the Progressive witness testified on the record. Judge Hayward found damages proven for unliquidated default judgment and entered judgment for $18,828.46 after the witness' testimony and counsel's presentation. The court directed the plaintiff to e-file or email a proposed order for signature.
