The legal procedural steps and language were clear in some areas of the documentary. Terms and phrases such as caps on damages, mandatory arbitration, torts, and tort reforms were all explained in the film for the viewers to better understand the issues at hand and why it is important to know these terms. The legal procedures such as criminal and ciil lawsuits were not explained as well since most of these issues were in the past, three fourths of these cases had already been decided on. For each legal issue the film provided a case or story in order for the viewer to better understand the situations at hand. The first case provided was the case of Stella Liebeck v. McDonald’s, the case of the hot coffee. Mrs. Liebeck’s family thoroughly and genuinely explain the case, differing in facts and tone from the media and tort reform
