Dumbass was at the back and still plowed into the shambles head down sprinting for 29th out of 30. -- Michael Press |

Bill C a écrit profondement:
| I'd swear that I saw something where he dropped his suit last week, or | the judge threw it out. | Bill C The Judge dismissed it if I remember correctly from an item in "The Scotsman" I would think that the claimant did have some small cause of action but the judge obviously, and in full possession of the ins and outs of the matter, thought otherwise, or he could have applied the doctrine of "contributory negligence" But another factor to consider is that the claimant's insurance company, presuming for the moment that he had one, may have insisted on him bringing the action to which it would be subrogated, hoping to recover at least of its payout. -- Contributory negligence, for anyone who doesn't grok it, is where the judge feels both parties were negligent to a greater or lesser degree, let's say plaintif/claimant 30 per cent and respondent/defendant 70 percent, where damages would be awarded of only 70 percent of the amount claimed. -- Davey Crockett - Driving a Stake through the Heart of the Politically Correct |

The fact that the man sues for damage to his car is confirmation of his stupidity. 100mph through intersections with yield signs is criminally negligent. Phil H |
