SUPREME COURT OF THE UNITED STATES
NO. 07-219
EXXON SHIPPING COMPANY, et al., PETITIONERS v. GRANT BAKER et al.
on writ of certiorari to the united states court of appeals for the ninth circuit
[June 25, 2008]
Justice Scalia, with whom Justice Thomas joins, concurring.
I join the opinion of the Court, including the portions that refer to constitutional limits that prior opinions have imposed upon punitive damages. While I agree with the argumentation based upon those prior holdings, I continue to believe the holdings were in error. See State Farm Mut. Automobile Ins. Co. v. Campbell, 538 U. S. 408, 429 (2003) (Scalia, J., dissenting).
