John Ritter defendants: "They just lost less"

May 15, 2008

EM News: “In the Ritter case, the jury agreed with the defendant physicians and exonerated them of any liability. They were lucky. How lucky? They were able to spend four years with attorneys worrying about their future, including the potential that they would be ordered to pay tens of millions of dollars and be left penniless.

So, they didn’t really win. They just lost less.”
