Woman sueing Chick-Fil-A

I am just waiting for someone to bring up the McDonald's suit, and I can jump all over someone again....

Really, until you know the facts, you cannot determine if there was negligence. Did you know an 'innkeeper' owes a heightened level of care to those guests on its property? Did you know that? And, that is often because of the 'innkeeper's' better position to assume the liability. The law says, "if you are an innkeeper, and you are opening your doors to the general public, we presume that your space is safe."
Our system may not be perfect, but, it generally works. Slip and falls (a generic term, possibly one used to describe the Chick-filet [sic] incident) are an uphill battle. So, presumably, one 'suing' would have a decent case of negligence on their side, not to mention decent injuries. (i.e., one wouldn't like to sue over a scratch on the arm).

From that post.........I can totally see the *lawyer* in you! He he he :D

Barbara - You should be a lawyer :)

I'm in an employment law class right now which I find highly interesting. We talk a lot about suits like this.

It is not in the best interest of a company to go to court for any reason, even if the company is not in the wrong. If the company won the court case, it would still cost a lot of time, effort, and money. It is always cheaper to just settle out of court. So I guess people sue for whatever they can knowing that the company will probably settle.

The reasons people sue are absolutely ridiculous and disgust me.

As far as I know, from being at chick-fil-a and from my mother telling me, the pole wasn't in an awkward area.

It's been clearly easy to see from the start. :p

She'd better watch it! I love my Chick-fil-a and will lead a gang to her door if anything bad happens to my chicken sandwich, waffle fries and large sweet tea!;)

I must have misread the article. She walked into the pole?! I thought she drove into it. That makes it even lamer!

It's definitely one of them!:D

Wow, I've got a lawsuit brewing here! MUAHAHAHA! I was running around with my dogs at an elementary school near my old house and RAN full-tilt into a tetherball pole! I had a huge lump on my temple, and I -almost- lost consciousness!

I'll be RICH! *chuckles*

People are so stupid.
