A mass tort is a civil action involving numerous plaintiffs against one or a few corporate defendants. The tort may involve, for example, personal injuries suffered by numerous plaintiffs as a result of a defective product, or a mass disaster in which there were many injured persons, such as an airplane crash, or exposure of a large group of people to toxic chemicals or pharmaceuticals.
Acampo is a small unincorporated community just outside of Stockton in San Joaquin County, California, United States. It is the childhood place of Real & Chance of the reality television show I Love New York. In the 1870s, Acampo was named as a Southern Pacific Railroad station. The name comes from a Spanish word for "portion of the common given to the herds for pasture".
