Personal injury includes injuries to the body, mind or emotions, as opposed to an injury to property. If the negligence of another person can be proved, the person who is injured may be entitled to monetary compensation from that person who was negligent. Attorneys often represent clients on a contingency basis, in which the attorneys fee is a percentage of the compensation the plaintiff receives, payable when the case is resolved. Cases involving people who have suffered an injury for which someone else (an individual or business) may be legally liable -- may include injuries caused by car accidents, medical malpractice, dog bites, slip and fall incidents, and emotional distress.
Potter is a village in Cheyenne County, Nebraska, in the United States. As of the 2000 census, the village population was 390. On July 6, 1928 the then world's largest hailstone fell in Potter - the diameter was 5½ inches, and it weighed 1½ pounds. When cut in half it was found to be a single hailstone rather than several frozen together. The Tin-Roof Sundae was invented in Potter.
