    That’s a long way to say I don’t really know the details of this case and will just follow the narrative McDonald’s wants me to…

        McDonald’s had multiple incidents where they were ORDERED by courts to stop holding the coffee at an unsafe temperature, and they chose intentionally to disregard that.

        So McDonald’s chose to disregard human safety and legal orders. Hence the massive punitive fine.

          I am aware that McDonald’s did have 700 claims nationwide from burns from coffee in the 10 years between 1984 and 1994.

          But I can’t find anywhere where they were ordered by courts to lower the temperature. Can you provided a link to one of these cases where they were ordered to lower the temperature and they disregard that?
