In December 1997, Kara Walton of Claymont, Delaware successfully sued the owner of a night club in a neighboring city when she fell from the bathroom window to the floor and knocked out her two front teeth. This occurred while Ms. Walton was trying to sneak through the window in the ladies room to avoid paying the $3.50 cover charge. She was awarded $12,000.00 and dental expenses.
Ok, just to be clear, I don’t want to pay a cover charge ‘$3.50′, which is a cheap cover, so I slip out of the bathroom and knock myself senseless because I am a clutz, but sue the club and win $12K. What exactly was the charge? The window sill was wet and not marked? I don’t understand what the actual charge was. What did the club do or not do that made it liable? It was charging cover and therefore caused mental duress, which in turn was a contributing factor to her falling? And what the heck did she get done that was $12K worth of work? I have had dental work by a great dentist, but I dont think I ‘and my insurance’ have paid that much in years.
So, in counting down our morons, here is the break down: Kara Walton’1′, Jury’12′, Judge’1′ for a total of 14 morons, leaving 299,999,986 to go!
