Is Wal-Mart Reneging On Promise To Shank Family? - 05/01/08

By Doug Cunningham

Wal-Mart has not kept its word to the Shank family. The company sued the family trying to get a trust fund settlement that's used to pay for medical care for a woman who suffered brain injuries in an auto accident. Despite announcing it was dropping its lawsuit last month, Wal-Mart still has the $200,000 left in the medical trust fund tied up so the family still can’t use it to pay for Debbie Shank’s medical costs.
