Description

This is an appeal of a personal injury action brought by Michael Ken Alvey to recover for the serious injuries he received from falling in a "seismic" hole at an oil drilling site on Alaskas North Slope. The site was leased by the defendant, Exxon Corporation (Exxon). Exxon filed a third-party claim against Loffland Brothers Company (Loffland), an independent contractor who provided drilling services to Exxon and who was Alveys employer. The third-party claim alleged that Alveys injuries resulted from Lofflands negligence, and that therefore Loffland was obligated to indemnify Exxon under the terms of a contract between the parties. The jury found that the accident resulted solely from the negligence of Exxon and awarded Alvey $7,108,521.31. This award was reduced by the trial court to $5,000,000.00 on remittitur. Exxon appeals alleging various errors at trial and attacking the amount of the recovery. Alvey cross-appeals alleging that remittitur was improper, and Loffland cross-appeals alleging that it had no indemnity obligation to Exxon under the terms of its contract. We affirm.
