My guess:

She was let off because there was no appeal rights. The law is MANDATORY ARBITRATION which I happen to feel is an unconstitutional waiver of your legal rights, but, once this judge threw it out, it should go to arbitration, where the plaintiff can get 35 cents.

ML was popped on the same theory for Henry Blodgett and they settled for 400 Million!!!!! (I believe.) I assume because the attorney handling that case told them that he would appeal on the constitutional issue. They would be VERY affraid, I would think, to take that case up, even if there were a 1 in 10000 chance they would lose, the results would be devastating to them.
