This is good news, but it shouldn't have cost so much to get it.
I'm sorry for the family's losses but it's not EAA's problem, and I hope they go after and recoup expenses for the whole legal scenario that they were dragged through to defend themselves against one individual's negilgence and incompetence.
Succumbing to these types of lawsuits prematurly as many others have, has been a significant factor in the artificially high cost of GA for many decades, that we all end up paying for. The EAA fighting this case is a precedent that should be continued by others in similar cases until the motive is no longer there.
The $10.5 million judgement against EAA has been overturned.
