Sketchy Report: $15.2 Compensatory Verdict in Jones County Drilling Mud Case

Posted on April 8, 2010 by Philip Thomas

I have a very sketchy report of a $15.2 compensatory verdict in a Jones County drilling mud case. Honestly, I don't know what a drilling mud case is.

It's my understanding that the verdict came in yesterday and the punitive phase was today.

Judge Billy Joe Landrum was the trial judge. The only thing I've heard so far on attorneys was that the lead defense lawyer was out of Houston and in-artfully argued in his last trial loss that the defendant should win because the plaintiff was 80 and had one foot in the grave already.

I have been out of the office today and will investigate this verdict tomorrow.
