In the USA you can be sued for EVERYTHING. And here's the craziest lawsuit so far.

Can you imagine what the family must go through? They lose their loved one in such a horrible way and now they're sued because of their loved one dying?

Yes, I read this on my news feed.

It never occurred to me to repost it here, because it has nothing to do with writing erotica. Your music posts are more apropros, I think.

Only in America!

It's really an insurance company duel, I would think.

Only in America!

Yes, I agree. You really hit the nail on the head. Going to court to sue is quickly becoming America's favorite pastime. What else can we do when all of our jobs have been exported to developing Asian nations? Baseball games were a great way to escape the worries of the Great Depression in the 1930's. But where is the escape today, when tickets to a professional sports game run into four figures for the nosebleed seats? Suing one's neighbor is nothing personal. Nor is it a moral issue, either. The American lawsuit, frivolous or otherwise, is nothing more than the most attainable economic survival strategy of the dwindling few in these tough economic times.

Luckily, the sue-or-starve mentality in America only applies to the 99 percent who are struggling.

Again, isn't this one likely a duel between insurance companies, not between the parties directly involved? Maybe only in America (although I doubt that), but with a corporate, not a personal, application.

It just goes to show that judges DO have a sense of humour.
