And the punitive damages were awarded because there were documents that McDonalds was aware of the danger (there were other similar cases), but did nothing.

I've also heard they deliberately kept the coffee very hot because they were promoting free refills, but wanted to discourage them to actually happen, but I don't know if it's true.
