Broussard v. State Farm oral argument to be held December 5

I've probably written more about Broussard v. State Farm than any other Katrina case, and I see that the Fifth Circuit will hold oral argument December 5 on State Farm's appeal of the $2.7 million verdict. The verdict included a $2.5 million punitive damages award, which was reduced to $1 million by Judge Senter. More from this story in the Sun Herald. For some background, here's a relatively brief post I wrote earlier this year. If you want to read the full panoply of Broussard posts, simply type "Broussard" in my blog's search bar and have at it.
