			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Gary Sheppard, a former Aramark Corporation and Noble Drilling Corporation employee, is claiming that he sustained serious injuries due to poor lighting and has recently filed a Jones Act lawsuit to recover the damages he has experienced.</p>
<p>Sheppard tripped and fell while serving aboard a ship stationed in the Gulf Coast. Sheppard and other sea workers are protected by the Jones Act, which ensures that sea workers are compensated if injured due to their employer&#8217;s failure to provide employees with adequate training, a safe working environment, and safe equipment.</p>
<p>The lawsuit states that Sheppard has had to undergo three surgeries to treat his injuries - one for his knee and two for his shoulder. Sheppard is suing for damages in excess of $500,000 for past and future medical bills and lost wages.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>During a boat transfer, Ricci Anderson reached for a handrail to stop himself from falling as the boat he was aboard began to rock. According to the lawsuit filed, the motion involved in grabbing the handrail has left the seaman with serious arm injuries.</p>

<p>He is seeking damages for medical bills, pain and suffering, mental anguish, and lost earnings.</p>
