I'm tempted to sue mcdonald's for serving such crappy food. Think I got a case?

[Lancer]

Hang all lawyers, with certain exceptions.

Well, If mcd did put cheese on my burger , I certainly would sue them too

Unfortunatedly, danish legislasion dosen't allow damage payments of that size

[Lancer]

Everyone makes mistakes.

[BlackCat]

Oh, and on the actual case - why the hell did the idiot not check if there was cheese in the burger before eating it ? He certainly deserves what he got.

That's absurd, sorry. If you're allergic, and buying something that has a risk of (whatever) on it, it's your responsibility to check... sure McD should check also, but they would be liable in my mind to $2.49 - the price of the burger.

Taking two years to file lawsuits = ambulance chaser

McDonald's

This lawsuit is indeed truly pathetic and will be a waste of a court's time. The only person winning here is the lawyer.

Mc Donalds has to tolerate so much bs, only in the USA women take their kids to McDonalds everyday, and then sue McDonalds for making her kids fat, this is just the latest example.

Who Moved My Cheese?
Remember that old lady who sued and won some unspeakable amount of money after she spilled McDonald's coffee on herself, then became a symbol of the out-of-control plaintiffs bar?

Young Jeromy Jackson seeks to supplant her. The Record, "West Virginia's legal journal," reports on Jeromy's lawsuit against the Golden Arches, in which he seeks $10 million in damages:

Jackson, his mother Trela Jackson and his friend Andrew Ellifritz filed a suit July 18 in Monongalia Circuit Court against the popular fast-food chain because Jeromy Jackson is allergic to cheese.

According to the suit, Jackson, his mother and friend went to the drive-thru at the McDonald's on Chaplin Road in Morgantown on Oct. 30, 2005. Jackson claims he ordered two "Quarter Pounders" without cheese, stating he was allergic to cheese.

"From this point forward, Mr. Jackson repeatedly asked as to the status of his food and whether it had no cheese, and took multiple preventive steps to assure his food did not contain cheese," the suit says.

The suit says Jackson received his food, bit into one of his sandwiches and immediately began to have a severe allergic reaction.

So apparently the "multiple preventive steps" he took "to assure his food did not contain cheese" did not include looking at the damn sandwich before eating it!

Food allergies are no laughing matter. If Jeromy is as severely allergic as he says, and if he really is this careless about what he eats, he may not survive long enough for the case to go to trial.

But she was right. Unfortunately McD's didn't have to pay the million $ fee, because it was reduced to a few hundred thousand. But I think they did reduce the excessive heat to the industry standard afterwards, so at least that helped.

Yeah I remember her, she did the same thing a couple months later at McD in some other state
