Senter, who is hearing virtually all the Katrina lawsuits in Mississippi, now has his sights set on finding a way to quickly and fairly resolve hundreds of similar cases. The next trial for a Katrina insurance case is scheduled for January. In the meantime, other lawyers with Katrina lawsuits insisted that Tuesday’s ruling didn’t weaken their cases.
