Proc., Â§ 377.34, punitive damage claims can survive the death of the injured party: but, in most situations, that is true only if the decedent survived the accident, however briefly, or if property of the decedent was damaged or lost before death.Grimshaw v. Ford Motor Co.(1981) 119 Cal.App.3d 757, 829.
In these situations, compensatory damages can be sought for the amount of money normally earned during that time period, known as âlost wagesâ. The injured person can also claim lost wages for any absences due to medical treatment of the injury. An injury severe enough to prevent a person from working ever again may allow for compensatory damages covering the loss of oneâs future earnings.
