Morelli has filed suit against Wal-Mart, claiming the retailer should have known the truck driver had driven 1,100 kilometers.

A criminal complaint alleges the 35-year-old driver, Kevin Roper, of Jonesboro, Georgia, hadn't slept for more than 24 hours before the accident. Wal-Mart has said it believes he was in compliance with federal safety regulations.

Roper has pleaded not guilty to death by auto and assault by auto charges.
