Alabama is #1 in punitive lawsuits... (Score 1)

I grew up in Alabama and if there is one thing people know how to do is sue.

I knew a woman who got injured on the job, so she sued her employer and won. After she got a little scratch from that, she started suing everyone in existance. Fortunately, none of the other lawsuits ever panned out.

It's no wonder that the lawsuit is in Alabama. I don't think there's a restriction on how much a lawsuit's payout can be there.
