Wang Dong and others were sued after Shu Chi Lam was hit by a car and allegedly sustained injures to his head, neck and left knee.
When the New York County Supreme Court concluded he didn't have a case, Lam appealed to the Appellate Division, First Department.
The medical reports submitted by the defendants showed that Lam hadn't sustained a "permanent consequential limitation of use" or "significant limitation of use" of his head, neck or left knee. While his doctor claimed there was some lingering injuries, that analysis was discredited since the physician couldn't establish those conditions were tied to the accident.
No one was about to ding Dong.
