The family of a day laborer who was left quadriplegic after a traffic accident in which he collided with a mule in 2004

today managed to collect 10 euros of the compensation ordered by the judge for the event, which was set at one million euros.

This is a case that occurred

on February 29, 2004, when Juan Carretero Gil, a 66-year-old day laborer, a native of Algodonales (Cádiz), was left quadriplegic due to a traffic accident

when the vehicle in which he was traveling with a mule collided at 9:30 p.m., on the road that connects Utrera with Los Palacios and Villafranca (Seville).

The lawyer for the day laborer's family, who died several years after the event, Fernando Osuna, has criticized the "judicial jam" of the Utrera court, since not only have they not received the compensation of one million euros that corresponds to him by sentence ,

but "now, it seems like a joke, but they have managed to seize the amount of ten euros, which is all they have achieved."

Due to the delay in the collection of the compensation,

the Justice set in June 2018 the increase of the fine at 60,000 euros for the malfunction of the court, an amount that took a year to receive,

although it still does not collect the main figure.

The firm has assured that this situation could have been solved if the Court of Utrera had processed the trial normally, but the traffic jam of this body has prevented it.

Now, the lawyer has ironized that

his client's family still has 999,990 euros to collect, without knowing when they will receive it "or if a family member will be satisfied with what the sentence entitles them to"
