Well, he botched it and fell on his head. Now he is suing the supermarket

is inept and/or stupid? I say he should have sued his parents for genetic
deficiency.


It's my understanding most of that type of personal injury case is
taken on a contingency fee basis. I don't think a competent lawyer
would want to waste time on a case that has absolutely no merit and a
poor chance for a payout. If the guy found a lawyer willing to take
the case, there may be something more to the story. Although, I guess
there are some attorneys that are willing to try suing everybody
within a 1/4 mile radius of the accident site and hope one of them
will settle to avoid the harassment.

I agree that if the report posted is a fair compilation of the
relevant facts, the guy's best case is against the parents for not
using effective birth control.
