Minnesota Bridge Victims Take Steps To Sue

WCCO in Minneapolis (via AP) reports that at least 73 victims from last summer's bridge collapse have filed notices of potential legal claims with the State.  As Bill noted in October, the State is considering a victims' compensation fund:

Bridge victims don't stand to get much from the state because of a law limiting the government's liability to $1 million per incident. But lawmakers are considering a compensation fund that would offer more to those who gave up the right to sue the state. A joint House-Senate panel takes up the proposal [today].
