And why does this new judge feel the image has to be changed if there’s nothing wrong?

364 med-mal cases tried, average 45 a year, in a county of 250K.

A third of the country’s asbestos class action cases. About a hundred class action cases a year.

They must be really unlucky to get this reputation.

Madison County's reputation never had anything to do with facts or merits of the particular cases. It had to do with corporate defendants preferring not to be held accountable for their actions.
