Summary

In this Real Water trial, five plaintiffs sue water company Real Water, claiming that the alkalized water caused severe illness. This illness was due to hydrazine contamination, a toxic chemical that plaintiffs claim caused their acute liver failure.

Defendant Real Water acknowledges the presence of hydrazine in the water and admits negligence, but argues that their behavior does not meet the criteria for recklessness and disputes punitive damages.

Outcome

Verdict for plaintiff.
Total damages: $129,080,238.
Including $29,080,238 in compensatory damages and $100,000,000 in punitive damages.
