Rip Andrews and David Marsh settled a products liability case growing out of a car wreck that occurred when a Texas family was driving through Alabama on I-20. The crash occurred when a rear tire of the large SUV the family was riding in suffered a tread/belt separation; that, in turn, led to the SUV rolling over on the road.
