The one big problem with your direction of thinking, this happened under a Democratic administration!

How do we impeach a supreme court justice (or injustice)?

This happened to my son when he was about 4. My bookcase was more like a very heavy stereo cabinet/bookcase, with the stereo and other heavy items in it. It fell on my son when he climbed it and broke his leg. I was very fortunate because half of it landed on the arm of a sofa first, then sort of rolled over onto him. If the sofa had not been there, I believed it could have killed him! I never thought about that possibility until I saw it happen first.

Oh yeah, and I thought about sueing my wife and other children, but thought better of it. I knew it wasn't my fault :)

[Whatever]

And so, they're supposed attach a bookcase to the wall immediately upon moving in case your little brat comes over and climbs on their stuff? Sounds like you should have been watching him.

That's it! Everyone who enters my house has to sign a waiver!

The homeowner ought to sue the Foss family for the mental trauma they have caused...after all, they have to look at that bookcase every day now

Great catch, genius! Now that you gave your history lesson, perhaps you can read that I replying to another persons comment. I never claimed it was a Democrat issue...just that the current administration is very much supporting a lack of personal responsibility and an increase in the entitlement mentality.

I thought the fact that the parents were friends was pretty interesting also. AND moving into a new place/unpacking, etc. Jeez! Close personal friends... yeah, let's sue them!
Uff dah.

You do understand they were suing their insurance company not them. Although a lame claim which I am glad was ruled correctly.

Since I pay for my insurance coverage, they are suing me and collecting through my insurance company. If this is because my insurance wouldn't pay medical bills I would stand next to them in court. If it is because they are claiming negligence on my part (in this situation), they using the system for a pay day. And they are doing it at my expense since my insurance company would then be raising my premiums.

It was said earlier, way to take responsibility and be a friend.

I say just your opinion should be enough to do it, as you are such a recognized leader in the confederacy of dunces.

Jesse,
It you are playing frisbee in your best friends back yard, you trip in a gopher hole and break your leg, needing surgery and you miss a month of work. Do you take responsibility and be a friend or do you sue his insurance company.
Insurance is for a reason. Not to be abused but to be used when needed.

I agree with you 100%. And like I said, if it were my friend fighting my insurance company I would be sitting right next to him in the court room. Now, if said friend was playing frisbee blind folded will drinking in my backyard while I was in the house, then sued on the basis that I was negligent. That is, in my opinion, abusing insurance.
