Stupid woman loses stupid lawsuit

[gabosaurus]

A jury laughs and tells her to shut up and go home. :laugh:
Dedicated equally to people who consider ridiculous nuisance lawsuits and the greedy lawyers who file them.

That gives me a little faith back in the Civil Lawsuit system.

Could not hold a plate and sought $127,000? An eight year old kid should have known better? Puleeze! :lame2:

I'd like to say how Sorry I am to hear you LOST THE CASE gabby. But that would be a lie.

With no chance of winning you can bet her attorney was billing an hourly rate.

Several years ago my dog ran me down while walking and broke my ankle. I would have sued the dog except his only assets all had doggy drool on them.

Certainly looks unreasonable.
But i hear its something to do with the woman trying to get her own insurance to cover the medical bills.

Apparently comes down to what I originally thought. Homeowners insurance and some accident policies are weird. They insist that suit be brought first before they pay out. Blame the insurance companies and the legal system, not the family. If a victim wants to get medical bills paid, this is sometimes what has to happen.
