Judge Roger Young of Charleston County Circuit Court has approved the settlements between a widower, whose wife was killed on their wedding day, with Progressive Insurance and certain Folly Beach clubs.
Additionally, Snapper Jacks agreed to a $320,000 settlement, while Enterprise Rent-A-Car is paying Hutchinson $24,000.
The widower sued the clubs for serving the amounts of alcohol consumed by Jamie Komoroski, the alleged drunken driver who hit the newlyweds (then in a golf cart) and consequently killed Samantha Miller while driving a rented vehicle.
The case against Komoroski is ongoing.
According to the report, Hutchinson stands to receive $863,331.50 after attorney fees and other expenses.
