Biloxi attorney Jack Denton told the Sun Herald he and attorney William C. Walker Jr. finalized the settlement Friday morning of 18 lawsuits filed against State Farm. Two of those cases were set for court later this month. While Denton could not discuss specifics of the settlement, he said the specter of punitive damages against the insurer played into the negotiations.
"We finally got a little relief," Denton said. "We're pleased that we were able to get our current State Farm cases resolved. What it indicates to me is that we have finally reached some middle ground with State Farm that has created a basis on which we can settle our State Farm cases."
