That's presumably why the jury found her partially at fault. However, increasing the temperature above that greatly increases the severity of the burns, which is why McDonald's was also partially at fault because they served the coffee at a higher temperature so her burns were more severe than they would have been if it had been served at a normal temperature.

...did you just miss where I explained that any reasonable hot holding temperature would result in second or third degree burns in one or two seconds? If you've got clothing trapping burning liquid next to your skin, the extra 20 degrees temperature ceases to be a factor - you're getting third degree burns either way.
