Alabama Drops Out Of Annual "Judicial Hellhole" Report

»  Comments | Post a Comment

MONTGOMERY, Ala. (AP) - Alabama has lost its title of "judicial

hellhole."



The American Tort Reform Association released its annual report

called "Judicial Hellholes" today. And Alabama wasn't cited in

the 49-page report. Alabama used to be a regular feature of that

report. But a spokesman for the association says the Alabama

Supreme Court has become a stabilizing effect by reducing or

throwing out big jury verdicts.



Governor Riley says the report is evidence that impressions

about Alabama have changed.



Tuscaloosa lawyer Bob Prince, the president of the Alabama

Association for Justice, says Alabama should be concerned about

coming off the list. He says Alabama's omission by the business

group makes it appear Alabama doesn't care about justice.
