“The fine goes to the government and not to Maria Alvarez, now 19, who lost all the fingers on her hand to a machine called a mauler.”

Ms. Alvarez also sued the company for damages from the injury. Among the defenses raised by the company is that Alvarez “is barred from recovering damages because as an ‘illegal alien,’ she participated in any circumvention of the law the suit accuses the defendants of violating.”
