Mental Stress Compensation Paid to Siblings of Bus Fatality Girl

Three siblings of a girl, who was killed in a tragic bus accident in Dublin, have settled their claims for mental stress compensation against the bus company for undisclosed sums.

It was alleged that the three siblings of Jennifer Hoban, who died in November 1997 when she was hit by a bus while crossing the Killinarden Way in Tallaght, each suffered a prolonged grief reaction to witnessing the accident.

David Hoban (21), Kenneth Hoban (24) and sister Elaine Hoban (25) all claim to have suffered psychological injury and made a claim for mental stress compensation against Dublin Bus. Their settlements have been paid “without prejudice” – meaning that details of the compensation settlement can only be revealed if all parties agree.
