Teen Awarded $11.5M in Case Against Houston Trampoline Park

On Friday afternoon, a Harris County jury returned a verdict of $11.485 million for a teenager who suffered a traumatic brain injury at Houston’s Cosmic Jump indoor trampoline park. Following a two-week trial in the 334th Judicial District Court of Harris County, jurors found Cosmic Jump grossly negligent and rendered the largest jury verdict ever against a commercial trampoline park in the United States. The teen was injured in 2013 after he fell through a torn trampoline, striking his head on the concrete floor below. The fall resulted in a fractured skull, seizures, and a traumatic brain injury.
