Last month, former Mississippi State University ‘Bully’ Mascot Michaela Mills released the university from a personal injury lawsuit she filed after an ESPN-operated camera cart ran over Mills’ leg, ending in a compound fracture and two subsequent surgeries.
   Mills was performing on the sidelines as ‘Bully’ during 2013’s Egg Bowl game in the Davis Wade Stadium when a cart carrying ESPN camera equipment and photographers ran into her, resulting in a compound fracture.
   Mills filed a lawsuit against MSU and ESPN, ESPN for being responsible for the camera cart and MSU for providing a costume with inadequate visibility. 
   In January MSU released a statement saying neither the school nor any of it’s employees were in direct control of the cart, and Mills dropped them from the lawsuit. 
  The Clarion-Ledger’s Michael Bonner reported at the time that Mills initially was seeking over $75,000 in damages, and she is still in pain due to the metal rod now inserted into her leg.
   The case is being handled in Aberdeen, and is presided over by Senior Judge Neal Biggers.
