    You aren’t wrong about studies. But can a person in the majority ever really understand what life is like as a minority?
    If overnight I was to drop you in Nigeria or Pakistan do you think you’d experience any mistreatment? Do you think that others might just treat you differently because the colour of your skin? I’ll never know what it’s like to be a woman, so when my wife tells she gets harassed or mis treatment at times it’s not up to me to deny her feelings. I don’t know what it’s like on the other side.

    Well I wouldn’t want your daughter as my lawyer. I’ve heard of people getting rich because of hot coffee

    Yes the system is flawed, yes there are ridiculous judgements. However there are even more suits that have real merits that are lost in summary judgement and countless cases that are abandoned before they get to that point.

    In THIS case, any settlement would have to be less than the cost of fighting until February. Based on current court filings, plantiffs consult will not be ready to proceed to trial by that point and it appears TMC is still using in house counsel. I doubt this case is going anywhere.
     
    Siinman and EvertonP Thank this.

    The messed up thing about it is they may have to fight it to the end wether they want to or not. This is public record and the court of public opinion plays by their own rules

    Please, please, please read into the facts of that case and not the media narrative. It's a widely different set of facts.

    There are NO facts of the case. Just allegations.

    There are plenty of facts about the hot coffee case, and to be frank she deserved every penny she got .

    Sorry I wasn’t talking about the McDonald’s one. There was a lady that settled with Tim Hortons out of court that I was talking about

    She probably wouldn't represent you unless your case was about Native American tribal law. Her firm deals almost exclusively with human rights issues. They're not the kind of people who advertise on bill boards or hang around traffic court.

    Please read beyond Wikipedia. The study I posted is available in MANY other places beyond sage, from it's first publication and beyond.
