in all honesty, this could be the beginning of the end for Mitsubi****, if
punitive damages are called for and granted, the history that Mitsubi****
has
with hiding defects and not recalling for repair will cost them BILLIONS
in
the US alone, all it will take is for this case to succeed and the Lawyers
will appear like Vultures over a still warm carcass and the Class Actions
will start to pile up tsunami style.
similar cases in the US drove much larger and more liquid companies to
within inches of destruction, can anyone say "Firestone" and "SUV"
