What the hell is a 79-year-old grandma doing drinking coffee in a car anyway?

Shouldn't she have been in a freakin' nursing home or sumpin'?

 :yawn:

Actually, this is the classic David versus Goliath story. Little ol' David (Grandma) goes up against Goliath (Mickey D's) armed only with her babushka and her coffee stirrer.

So Mickey D's ponies up $2 million to cover $11,000 in medical bills. (The lawyers' fees surely amounted to $1.89 million.)

It's a good thing I drink my coffee black.

My pinkies were chewed off in a knock-down, drag-out fight with a pillowcase one night after a gig.

True.

Quote
The truth is that 79 year old Stella Leibeck sustained third degree injuries over 6% of her body and lesser burns over another 16% of her body, and spent eight days in the hospital where she received multiple skin grafts. She also underwent two years of physical therapy after the accident. Her hospital bills came to more than $11,000.


In 79 years, the plaintiff had never brought suit against anyone for anything. She only brought suit against McDonalds when they offered her $800 in compensation for her $11,000 medical bills, and refused to consider increasing their settlement offer.

She tucked it between her legs and it spilled.  The burning actually melted her hose to her legs and she had 3rd degree burns on her legs and thighs.

Ah.

Like the person in the capitol building that opened the letter in 01 and saw the anthrax powder and screamed and threw it across the room thus ensuring dispersal.

Panic is a bitch.

Did this get settled years ago and McDonald's ended up putting on warning on their coffee cups hot coffee could result in nude pictures being posted all over the Internets?

An attorney I know said he went to a seminar or something and they talked about this case.  He said the award was reduced down to like $300k or something and he said if the attorney representing McDonalds hadn't been such a smarmy ass that the jury would have never awarded the initial amount they awarded.

Evidently the seminar he went to was about not being a smarmy ass lawyer ..... I don't know how they can NOT be without years of deprogramming but there it is.  LOL
