Estate of Jonathan Jung v. The Bicycle Casino

VERDICT

Trial
06/17/24 – 07/09/24

Summary

In this wrongful death lawsuit, the family of decedent Jonathan Jung sues The Bicycle Casino. Jung began acting erratically while at the casino and was ordered to leave by staff. After exiting to the parking lot, Jung was accosted by security guards, with one restraining him and causing him to suffocate. His family claims that these guards were improperly trained and used excessive force against an unarmed man.

Representatives for The Bicycle Casino claim that Jung attempted to evade security while in the parking lot. Additionally, they point to the finding of methamphetamine in Jung’s bloodstream as the cause of his death, rather than the guard’s restraint.

Outcome

Verdict for defendant.
