    Complete and utter waste of the time and resources taken for her case. They offered to refund her the difference, what more does she want?

    Just because you can, doesn't mean you should.

    This isn't her first case like this, either.

    Attention.

    Death thought about it.

    I really wonder what the heck is wrong with people like this. WHY waste everyone's time and money? That's such a shallow thing to do. She needs to stop preaching this BS and start doing some real "activism". Or maybe if you have such an issue at wal-mart, how about you don't shop there?

    Activist??? - nope - pain in the keister - yes! She's getting her point across at tax payer's expense, and got a quick $100 from Walmart to boot. I agree with Alysser - maybe she should shop elsewhere if she has such issues with them. And shame on the state for even allowing such trivial nonsense to go thru the court system and waste taxpayer time and money.

    Another position to consider: when we begin determining which case makes the grade, in OUR opinion, we begin to 'lock the door to the courthouse'. I believe the door must remain open to any and all. Regardless of my personal thoughts on the merits of the case.

    There must have been some merit to the case- irrespective of the amount of the damages- or the Judge would not have ruled in her favor. There are several motions that opposing counsel could have filed that would have had this case dismissed. There is actually a pleading that could have resulted in the filing attorney being sanctioned for frivolous filings. Might be more here than meets the eye.
