McGrath was driving too fast and skidding around corners, the court said, even after Stockinger asked him to slow down. She didn't ask him again and was thrown from the truck after it skidded and hit something.
The accident left her a paraplegic. McGrath was not sued but Byberg said his client collected about $150,000 to $200,000 from his insurance policy and her parents' policy.
A Plumas County Superior Court judge dismissed all claims against Feather River and Reid without trial.
