So Tracy Morgan got 90 Million from Walmart

[Doobie Doo]

DAMON WAYANS
TRACY MORGAN GOT $90 MILLION FROM WALMART
57 MINUTES AGO BY TMZ STAFF


GLAD HE GOT PAIDThe Breakfast Club 105.1

Tracy's rep tells TMZ, the terms of Tracy's settlement with Walmart are confidential, adding, "Tracy has had no contact with Mr. Wayans since before the accident so there is no way he would be able to know this and thus is false."

Damon Wayans dropped a bombshell on Charlamagne Tha God's show, The Breakfast Club, sayingTracy Morgan settled his lawsuit with Walmart for $90 million. It was previously reported the money would be paid out over 5 years.

Damon casually mentioned the figure during a discussion about comedians who have the financial independence to do comedy on their own terms.

When you watch the clip, it's pretty clear this was not a premeditated statement ... it came out of Damon's mouth as stream of consciousness.

Business Insider reported on Monday Tracy bought a $14 million home in New Jersey.

Morgan was severely injured in the crash caused by a Walmart truck driver more than a year ago. He suffered brain and other injuries but has bounced back remarkably.

You know Walmart doesn't want to cough up them 90 Ms so they're looking for a breach in the agreement.

If I'm Morgans lawyer, my statement: "Prove that Tracy told him how much it was."

Only the parties to the suit and their lawyers are supposed to know. It's easier to establish a relationship between two black comedians than Walmart and Wayans lol.

I always thought it was ridiculous that a group of people sit in a room somewhere to decide the amount of money should "make up for" physical/emotional damages. How do you sit and decide "He was messed up pretty badly so $90 mil seems about right ?" The idea of that is just weird to me.

 

[The Mad Titan]

That's a hell of a settlement. He was devastated from it though.

They often follow predecent. Also, they take into account a variety of factors including the cost of future medical care needed by the patient...future loss of earnings. Experts are brought in by both sides.

They don't pull a random number out of thin air.
