Does this mean that we’ll soon be inundated with lawyer ads that say we’re Entitled to Compensation?
The US legal system often takes years before something like this gets to a settlement.
You may be entitled to a settlement of seventy-five cents and your weight in plastic ashtrays. Call now!
It’s going to be a settlement and most likely it will be like tobacco and opioids settlements…
States are supposed to get it to help the victims, when in reality it’s at best used as a random slush fund and excuse to lower taxes on the wealthy.
At worst it’ll be used to directly help the industry that caused the damage.
Oh nooo not the precious, sweet plastic manufacturers!
