Amazing. Two morons and a big settlement. I hope they can appeal

It's worse than the lady who spilled coffee on her lap and sued

it was hot.

Yeah, well there is hot, and then there is what McDonald's was
selling.
Eight days in hospital, with skin grafts, hot.

When you are 70 years old, and a coffee drinker, you should have
learned
coffee is hot. And not be so stupid as to take off the protective lid
and place the cup in your crotch as your son drives over the curb
leaving McD's. And the $24million was reduced to about 1.4 million.
After medical and legal costs, I bet she had enough to buy a senior
coffee at McD's.

We're all eternally grateful that you're not in the legal profession, a
judge, or qualified to sit on a jury.

Unlike you, I am qualified to sit on a jury, and have a couple times.

Unlike me? There's no bar for an attorney to sit on a jury. Feel free to
prove otherwise.

the defendent was a minority, he would get booted.
