MONTGOMERY, Ala. (AP) — The Alabama Supreme Court says a man can't go forward with his lawsuit against a company involved in booking a death metal concert where he was injured.
The justices on Friday blocked a lawsuit against the Los Angeles-based ICM Partners by Jordan Taylor Pardue and his mother.
Pardue sued claiming he was badly injured during a 2014 concert by the band Cannibal Corpse at Soul Kitchen Music Hall in Mobile. Court records show the young man was thrown down and suffered a spinal injury that resulted in more than $1.2 million in medical treatments.
The decision says ICM Partners received a $250 commission for booking the band but had no other involvement.
The high court said a Mobile County judge was wrong to let the suit against ICM Partners go forward.
