Idaho Uber/Lyft Lawsuits in State or Federal Court
ID Uber/Lyft assault lawsuits can be filed in state or federal court. Selecting a jurisdiction is generally based on: 1) whether all parties inhabit Idaho, and 2) the severity of sexual assault injuries.
Idaho State Uber-Lyft Assault Claims
When all parties reside in Idaho, Uber/Lyft assault lawsuits of any magnitude can be filed in the State’s county courts (ID Courts Website). The Idaho Rules of Civil Procedure sets forth the State’s procedural law for rideshare company claims.
The State of Idaho follows a modified comparative negligence rule. Accordingly, an Idaho Uber/Lyft lawyer can recover damages for sexual assault provided the plaintiff is less than 51% at fault. However, the passenger’s financial award may be reduced by their own degree of fault (if any).
9th Circuit Uber-Lyft Assault Claims in Idaho
Idaho is part of the Ninth Circuit of the federal court system, and individual Uber/Lyft assault lawsuits can be filed at its local U.S. District Court. Rideshare appeals are heard by the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals.
Provided the sexual assault injuries are severe, claims can be filed in this court against drivers nationwide.
However, federal Uber/Lyft lawsuits filed in Idaho may be transferred to a centralized jurisdiction pursuant to a sexual assault Multi-District Litigation (MDL) Transfer Order. (Follow this link for our additional information on 9th Circuit Uber/Lyft assault compensation.)
