Well, Timber, as I am sure you know, juries get vindictive. I was originally a defendant in the famous case tried here in Van Zandt County against American Home Products (I was dropped from the suit when I agreed to testify for the plaintiff, a patient of mine.) The jury was furious at all of the coverups that AHP had engaged in and resolved to punish them. It seems to me that to limit puitive damages would be a step in the right direction.
