Cody and Zach are construction workers for ABC Construction. During their down time, the workers like to goof around. Cody and Zach attempt to perform a stunt = Zach is going to place an apple on top of his construction helmet; and Cody is going to try to shoot it off his head with the company’s nail gun. Unfortunately for Zach, Cody’s aim was not great and he accidently shot the nail into Zach’s ear lobe. Zach had to be taken to the hospital where he received treatment for his injury, which resulted in significant medical expenses. Who would be held liable for Zach’s medical expenses at the hospital? And more importantly, why would that party be held legally liable?
