    Well, I don’t have an infant but can I sue too because if I did, they could have been hurt if I had one of these cribs????

    Took a double take on this one. Suing for what might have been?? What the hell.

    Why is everyone so sue happy now days? I’m sorry for her lose, but come on. I suppose she will ask for 5 billion dollars as well.

    Peeple need to read and understand the directions of what they have purchased. This simple quote “if consumers accidentally install the drop-rail side of the crib upside down, the agency said”

    If you are really conserned about your childs safety, stop buying cheep products to save a dollar, read the directions carefully when you put the product together PERIOD.

    SHE DIDN’T EVEN HAVE AN INJURED CHILD…she might have just had a dream that her kid got stuck in a crib that she put together incorrectly.
    You’ve got to be kidding me…I’m going to lunch in a few minutes, I think I’m going to sue my company because I might trip on the stairs that could be slippery some day.

    With contingency fees, there’s no risk for her, except time.

    They ought to sue her back and ruin her. Her kid didn’t get hurt – but the kid will eventually be hurt by growing up with a parent like this. Maybe she’ll get in a car crash on the way to court. One can only hope.

    There is not enough information to be able to comment on the case. Besides, let her file and get the case thrown out if it is bogus. An issue here is that the company recognizes the problem after someone dies and they are sued even though they have known the problem existed.

    Corporate America tends to focus only on the greedy bottom line so why is that different than the person suing.

    The contingency fee does more harm than good. It creates an incentive to exaggerate injuries, medical expenses, and lost wages. When a plaintiff has everything to gain and nothing to lose, defendants are at a dis-advantage in having to incure defense costs. We need to level the playing field by attaching a risk to losing a case. Adopting something like English law where the loser pays the winner’s legal fees would be a good start. Maybe the plaintiff bar would think twice about gumming up the courts with junk suits if they had some “skin in the game”.
