I have sat and heard soooooooooo many lawsuits that are frivilous that I keep swearing I am going to go through them and see if I can incorprate a few of them into one lawsuit.

Having said that, let me add, that there are tons of these suits clogging the court systems all over the country. I hold completely guilty those inept, anything for a fee, attorneys that keep these things flying.

My recommendation for frivilous suits would be to take the lawyer and his clients outside the courthouse and immediately execute them. Then put their case at the end of the yearly docket... when no one shows, dismiss it.

Lawsuits...What ever happened to good ole duels on Main St. at high noon to settle things!!??

I hate lawyers too...she makes me mow the lawn, take out the trash, cook, run the vacum, feed the ankle biters, do house repairs...Damn Lawyers!! :rolleyes:

reaper - you're damn lucky you found a lawyer to represent your sorry ass!

dcg - I'm a big fan of soapboxes - as long as they're sturdy

sorry, dc. cant help you there.

law (hey, you know i'm supposed to be in the shower right now!!), not worse, different injuries. her issue was more, not worsening pre-existing ones. did that make sense?

this girl has other issues too...

Good point!

Sweetjane...sounds like she needs some of Dr. Phil's help! Oops, wrong thread! :p

SJ - you have stuff to do - get cracking!
we'll talk more later

They should have paid all medical bills until the injured party was made whole again. (as as much as possible as were the case) and maybe $50,000 punitive damage award. (because you know that even though your bills have been paid, there will still be some reoccurring problems) but at the same time the judge could have orderd McDondalds to comply.(fix the problem) Where was OSHA during all this? Is there some agency somewhere that would make places comply to code?

Man, I gargoyled Mcd coffee lawsuit and got a pile of them. Hmmmm, I spilled one of their milkshakes in my lap once and suffered side effects throughout the whole date. Should I have sued?

$50,000 to McD's would be the equivalent of a $5 parking ticket. Where's the deterrent effect? They could absorb that amount 100 times over for less than it cost them to retrofit their machines.
OSHA would not be applicable here and I'm unaware of any codes which would apply either.
