The petitioner claimed the vaccines were administered in the United States, the injury occurred within the time period specified by the Vaccine Injury Table, and the residual effects lasted more than six months. The respondent initially denied that the petitioner sustained a SIRVA Table injury, denied that the vaccines caused the alleged shoulder injury or any other condition, and denied that her current condition was a sequela of a vaccine-related injury. Despite these denials, the parties filed a joint stipulation on April 16, 2025, agreeing to settle the case and award compensation. The court adopted the stipulation as its decision, awarding Terry Cristell a lump sum of $5,000.00 for all damages. This amount is to be paid through an ACH deposit to the petitioner's counsel's IOLTA account for prompt disbursement. The parties also agreed to submit to further proceedings for reasonable attorneys' fees and costs. The stipulation represents a full and complete negotiated settlement of liability and damages, and the petitioner irrevocably releases the United States and the Secretary of Health and Human Services from all claims related to the alleged injury from the August 24, 2022 vaccinations.","is_minor_inferred":0,"is_pediatric_broad":0,"special_master":"Brian H.
