Mississippi is the home of the massive class action lawsuits against tobacco and many drug manufacturers. In one county, the lawyers had a jury of handpicked jurors that repeatedly decided against the companies and rewarded them later with cash payments. Dickie Scruggs, Joey Langston, The Farese law firm, and a bunch of others were involved in multiple class action lawsuits that netted billions of dollars.

In jest, this ruling that will no longer help the class action lawsuit will decrease the money earning potential of many Mississippi lawyers realistically. In jest, it will bankrupt many of them taking away their sole source of income.

We were lucky here in NE Mississippi as we had only six tornado warnings and many set down briefly, unlike those as close as 20 miles. The worse were at 50 miles to 140 miles from NE Mississippi.

I’m glad that you are intact. What about Red_Devil 232? I think he’s near Meridian.
