Liability Considerations in Decatur
Decatur and DeKalb County residents within the EtO exposure zone benefit from the strong Georgia litigation precedent established by the $363M Kamuda verdict. The Trump exemption of the Sterilization Services of Georgia facility creates a powerful narrative about corporate influence over regulatory protection. Georgia's 2-year statute of limitations from diagnosis applies, with no caps on compensatory or punitive damages.
