27 Jan 08 Stella Awards
These are awards for the most outlandish lawsuits and verdicts in the U.S.
In second position this year:
Kara Walton, of Claymont, Delaware sued the owner of a night
club in a nearby city because she fell from the bathroom window to the
floor, knocking out her two front teeth. Even though Ms. Walton was
trying to sneak through the ladies room window to avoid paying the $3.50
cover charge, the jury said the night club had to pay her $12,000….oh,
yeah, plus dental expenses. Go figure.

In third position this year:
Third place goes to Amber Carson of Lancaster, Pennsylvania
because a jury ordered a Philadelphia restaurant to pay her $113, 500
after she slipped on a spilled soft drink and broke her tailbone. The
reason the soft drink was on the floor: Ms. Carson had thrown it at her
boyfriend 30 seconds earlier during an argument. What ever happened to
people being responsible for their own actions ?

In sixth position this year:
Carl Truman, 19, of Los Angeles, California won $74,000 plus
medical expenses when his neighbor ran over his hand with a Honda
Accord. Truman apparently didn’t notice there was someone at the wheel
of the car when he was trying to steal his neighbor’s hub caps.
Go ahead, grab your head scratcher.
