Sorry guys, your litigation procedures are nuts. What happens when little Jimmy at the age of 8 falls off his dining room chair and bangs his head on the floor and also breaks his arm. Sue the chair manufacturer.

Yep and why wasn't the manufacturer of the balls sued or the guys who planted the grass or the people watching for encouraging him to play?Government Moto:

People these days don't want to take responsibility for their actions. Granted in some cases it may be someone else's fault. But in this case and others that are similar, it takes a deep long stretch of the imagination to find fault with the manufacturer.

The pitcher's family were the plaintifs - he's dead.
Thank God Texas enacted some tort reform laws. They aren't perfect, but they have resulted in far fewer frivilous suits. One result is lower rates at the physician's office because malpractice insurance is lower for the doctors. Still a long way to go though.

The way I look at it, was it not the players choice to play the game? If so, how in the hell can the parent sue anyone? Thats almost as bad as the parents of a football player suing the coach because their son died at football practice.Comment
