(111,949 posts)he sued the electric company when he was out jogging during a thunderstorm and a tree fell on him. He received a structured settlement for almost $10 million. While he did not change the laws himself, he did uphold a court verdict as a Texas Supreme Court justice reaffirming the passage of tort reform legislation. If somebody else suffered a similar injury in similar circumstances there is no way they would receive such a large settlement.
