Re: New Class Action Lawsuit

Sorry, math was off. (I'm only an accountant)<br /><br />That would be $350 million for the lawyers.<br /><br />$7.55 for us victims.<br /><br />Personally, I'd like to get compensated for whenever I am forced to see Michael Jackson's messed up mug.

Re: New Class Action Lawsuit

As for malpractice insurance, I read an article in the Business section of the Seattle Times a few months back that said that one of the fastest growing business sectors was midwives. I think that's the term. Anyway, many doctors can't afford the insurance to deliver baby's so they stop delivering babies. The result is babies being born by non professionals. Personally, I want my babies born with every available modern medicine and tool available.<br /><br />Insurance companies blame the lawsuits and the unrealistic amounts that jury's award.<br /><br />Law firms simply blame the insurance companies for charging too much.<br /><br />Democrats say the Gov. can't put a price cap on human injuries, it needs to be decided on a case by case basis in the courts. (i.e. lawsuits)<br /><br />Republicans say: As distasteful as it is, we need to put caps on malpractice injuries, look what its doing to the industry, jury's obviously can't be trusted to do what's right for the greater whole.

Man, good 'ol PW let me down, thought for sure he was gonna blame it all on Bush. <br /><br />Have to rank this lawsuit right up there with the McDonalds spilled coffee incident, or the fella that wants to sue the cable company, 'cause he was getting free cable and he said it made him and his family fat and lazy. <br /><br />I don't agree with what happened, but a lawsuit from an individual that witnessed this event is hardly necessary. Aren't there indecent exposure laws in every state? If so, then why not make her abide by the state laws in Texas, where the incident occured? .........just a thought.

Yep, arrest her for indescent exposure. She should then have to register herself as a sex offender. Her parents should be so proud, her and Mikey, what a freak show that family is.

Re: New Class Action Lawsuit

If our system made the losers of frivolous suits pay the respondent there wouldn't be so many of them [/QUOTE<br /><br />In California, one of the worst legal things you can do is file a frivolous lawsuit. You AND the attorney that files the case will be made to pay all actual costs + punitives…in theory, anyways.<br /><br />I think most people don’t realize how corrupt the American judicial system has become. To have it dropped in the lap of the average person, it would be so overwhelming as to leave them in denial. As Justice Edith Jones put it, “the question of what is morally right is routinely sacrificed to what is politically expedient.”<br /><br />Something happened last year that was unheard of in the history of this country. Justice Edith Jones of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit gave a speech at Harvard Law School in which she stated that the court system(s) is so corrupt that a citizen can no longer get a sense of what justice is. Shortly there after, Justice O’Connor from the U.S. Supreme Court appeared on Good Morning America in a rare television appearance where she laid into the legal profession, saying it needed to re-think itself because the average person could no longer afford reasonable/competent legal representation.<br /><br />In a judicial forum, the adversarial party that appears most aligned with what is politically correct shall prevail. Literally, we now live in a land without justice.

Just heard on the radio that the woman that was bringing forth the suit dropped it.<br /><br />Apparently she just wanted to make a point. <br /><br />I wonder what point that was; That she's a moron.

Re: New Class Action Lawsuit

If this was an easy matter to figure out, this thread would not exist. I am reading some very good comments and ideas. I, personaly did not see the "event". I was washing some dishes up. I chose to do something else because I do not like Janet, Michael or any of the other Jacksons. I think theat they only exist for shock value and publicity. Nor do I like Justin Timberlake or his band of "boys". Yes, I like the Super Bowl and the NFL but If they are going to have Half-Time shows htat feature those types of acts, then I will shut off the TV for 20 minutes and find something else to do!!! H**l I have old fishing magazines that are more entertaining thatn they are. $.02 (sorry bout the noise but sometimes my fingers just get carried away.)
