If Bowen had just done a tutorial on how to walk this would NEVER have happened! ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Quoted from yancy:She could have tried other avenues first. Could have been in the works for a while. These things take longer than you could probably imagine. It was over three years from the date of my accident (mentioned above) to the final letter from my attorney. And a year after that, I was called to testify for my own insurance company trying to recoup funds from the driver and his insurance company.
Statute of limitations, most likely.
Quoted from Whysnow:yup 09 April 2016 and the suit claims an inability to do hobbies but she has had no trouble playing in more pinball competitions...
One as recent as April 30th 2016, just a few short weeks after this injury???
It gives pause to see such a major injury and still standing on a fracture for long hours of pinball in such a short time frame.
Maybe she used a balm?
Quoted from DCFAN:If the person was injured on non-PAPA property how would they have liability?
How many times have we been to place and had to park on the street or on some other private property? We choose where we want to park. No-body forces us to park in a particular spot.
As a non-lawyer it would seem only the property owner and the company responsible for maintaining and lighting the parking lot should be sued.
Everything is possible in the awful US court system. Failure to budget for proper parking based on anticipated attendance, forcing attendees to go offsite, blah blah blah.
Liability insurance will pick up the cost, if any, but this looks like another "settle out of court" thing to avoid legal fees. It's going after insurance company money.
Quoted from DCFAN:Surely there is some case law on businesses that do not provide parking in regards to liability. I know of many businesses such as restaurants that don't have parking for their patrons. Most urban areas are like that.
Yep. Probably is. But if the suit is allowed to go forward by the court, then you can get an insurance company settlement or trial.
