They should have at least paid the medical bills. The woman would not have profited from that at all and been happy according to what I just looked up here. I guess it ended up in McDonalds favor monetarily after the appeal but the bad PR probably cost them more than the measly ten grand she asked for
Yeah, it turned out a hell of a lot different than people think it did. The whole thing was completely different than people think.
According to an article I saw. McDonald's revenue from coffee sales alone is in excess of $1.3 million a day. And that was back in the 90's. Some are saying that she got 200 grand in the end for punitive damages but others dont really say. Its hard to get to the bottom of this one, several articles claim to but they have different numbers
Yeah, I think she got even less. I don't recall that bit's number. It might be that all of that ended up going to legal expenses.
