Judge approves potential 1 billion dollars law suit for NFL concussions
According to the Associated Press, Judge Anita Brody approves a potential 1 billion dollar plan to resolve thousands of NFL concussion lawsuits. In February, Judge Anita Brody requested changes to the $765 million settlement that the NFL and players agreed to resolve claims resulting from concussions suffered during playing careers before she would give it final approval.
A federal judge has approved a plan to resolve thousands of NFL concussion lawsuits that could cost the league $1 billion over 65 years.
The NFL expects 6,000 of nearly 20,000 retired players to suffer from Alzheimer’s disease or moderate dementia someday. The settlement approved Wednesday by a federal judge in Philadelphia would pay them about $190,000 on average.
The awards could reach $1 million to $5 million for those diagnosed in their 30s and 40s with Parkinson’s disease or Lou Gehrig’s disease, or for deaths involving chronic brain trauma.
Today she approved it today!!!
