A wrongful death lawsuit was filed against a Strip property and large convention association for failing to provide life-saving aid.
The estate of Missouri resident Michael Shanon Jamieson is suing The Venetian and Specialty Equipment Market Association, or SEMA, after failing to intervene after he suffered a heart attack.
The complaint and demand for jury trial was filed Monday in the Clark County District Court. The estate is suing for wrongful death; negligence; negligent hiring, retention, training and supervision; gross negligence; “respondeat superior,” a form of vicarious liability; and negligent infliction of emotional distress.

SEMA and Venetian did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
