W.R. Grace, victims don’t settle

A judge had appointed a mediator to try to resolve the dispute between W.R. Grace and victims of asbestos hazards created by that corporation. Today in the news there is a story about the breakdown of that negotiation. Too bad, because this might mean more litigation that W.R. Grace cannot possibly win. Grace tried to pull a stunt last year where they sent letters to victims in Libby Montana essentially saying: you’re not so sick.
