IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 

EASTERN DISTRICT OF ARKANSAS 

JONESBORO DIVISION 

JONNAS HARDING and 

RODNEY HARDING 

v. No. 3:14-cv-35-DPM 

PLAINTIFFS 

DOLLAR TREE STORES, INC. DEFENDANT 

JUDGMENT 

Jonnas Harding's and Rodney Harding's claims against Dollar Tree 

Stores, Inc. were tried to a twelve-person jury from 15 June 2015 to 17 June 

2015. The jury's verdicts, NQ 49 & NQ 50, are incorporated. After deliberations, 

the jury found unanimously that bothJonnas Harding and Dollar Tree were 

negligent and apportioned negligence 50/50. Mrs. Harding is not entitled, 

therefore, to recover any damages. As instructed, the jury found for Dollar 

Tree on Mr. Harding's derivative loss-of-consortium claim, which failed as a 

matter of law because his wife did not recover. The Court enters judgment on 

the jury's verdicts for Dollar Tree Stores, Inc. on both claims. Dollar Tree may 

be entitled to costs as allowed by law if it decides to pursue them. Any 

motion for costs due by 30 June 2015. The Hardings' complaint is dismissed 

with prejudice.
