The parents of a boy crushed to death in the Campbell Hall School parking lot have filed a wrongful death lawsuit against the school.
On June 4, 15-year-old Cosmo Silverman died after being pinned between two vehicles during student pick-up.
The lawsuit holds the Studio City school responsible for “severe negligence and systemic failures in supervision and campus safety.”
The family’s attorney said the school’s parking lot design is partly to blame.
The family alleges the school’s parking lot violated California Code of Regulations and that the school only implemented the required safety improvements after Cosmo’s death.
The lawsuit will seek damages for negligence, wrongful death and other related claims.
