A jury decided that Goodyear tire company must pay $37 million in actual damages in connection with a van accident, but it will not have to pay punitive damages. The plaintiffs wanted punitive damages because they wanted it to go on record that the tire was the reason for the accident. Attorneys for the plaintiffs expect Goodyear will appeal the verdict.
