They have refused to enter any discussions of settlement, but most believe that once a certain number of trials have been completed, they will have to start talking settlement. If one case goes to trial every day (including weekends and holidays), it would take 60 to 70 years to litigate every case. Realistically, the company can not continue to litigate every claim, especially when each loss so far has resulted in a multi-million dollar verdict.

She wants to know if you think there might eventually be a global settelment, as realistically, no one will ever be around to get any money by the time each case goes to trial.
