‘Life is precious; no amount of damages can ever hope to replace it — SC
“This Court does not mean to put a price on a person's life. The value of a human being is immeasurable. It is priceless. Yet the law, in all of its justice, deems it necessary that every injury — more so the loss of life — be compensated in the form of damages.”
