A Georgia woman who won $975,000 after a fall at a Walmart store in 2020 will face a new trial after an appeals court overturned the verdict on October 29. The court found that her lawyer had improperly compared compensation for pain and suffering with an expert witness’s $8,000 daily fee and minimum-wage rates. Judges ruled that these unrelated comparisons could have influenced the jury’s decision.
