Wal-Mart SUCKS. I never been much of a Tracy Morgan fan. But really Wal-Mart. It was some how his fault. Really!

That's what lawyers do, it's their job. Walmart lawyers have the job of mitigating damages as much as possible. They'll throw out accusations, blame, drag a little name through the mud...... until the plaintiff's attorney's have a bite into their juicy burger of garbage.

A lawyers job is to throw as much reasonable crap at anything hoping something sticks, especially true for defense lawyers.

Everyone knows - judges, jurors etc. - that Walmart is greedy. Even Walmart knows it's greedy....

The statement above screams of "drop the case and we'll settle! Just don't go all the way and we'll be reasonable!!!"

Sounds to me like Tracy Morgan is trying to retire on income he gets from this accident. He was a victim, but he may be asking for something outrageous, maybe more than the family of the passenger who died with him in the vehicle. (I have no clue, I never read the court documents and filings, but I've read thousands of them, and Morgan's lawyers' job is to GET AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE OUT OF WALLY WORLD!)

Trust me, they have dirt on Morgan - like they probably have a toxicology reports, they have something that could hurt his reputation. Majority of these things settle out of court.

Here's a comment on the Yahoo article from username "Captain Greybeard"--
Although I disagree with Captain Greybeard's premise because most states (if any) do not require passengers in a limo or bus to wear a seat-belt in the backseat, Captain Greybeard is exactly the kind of scum you'd want to hire if you were tasked with finding lawyers to defend a multitrillion dollar company against a multibillion dollar negligence lawsuit.
