Is it likely to be settled out of court? I would not want to take this to a jury, especially in Allegheny County. We're nowhere near as bad as Philly in terms of large jury verdicts, but I'd bet this settles. The fight is going to be on the back end. The plaintiff's estate will probably sue both Pi...

I don't think it would even be a matter of looking for precedent. It's just a matter of maximizing the payout, which shouldn't be too hard because the negligence is so clear. I'd bet money that this would be a res ipsa loquitur (Latin: "the thing speaks for itself") case. That's a legal doctrine tha...

Her heirs will, eventually. That's gonna be a huge check.
I don't do PI work and never have, but I'd take that case in a heartbeat. Shoot, I'd go all Shenderovich and do it for 25%.

I heard a house member saying this new antisemitism law will penalize (not sure how) anyone calling for the end of Israel as a state. Huh? Not that I agree with the sentiment, but that seems crazy. Yeah, that is utter insanity. lol The concern, as I understand it, is that the IHRA definition of ant...

Looking at the news stories, there are no allegations whatsoever that Truth Social or any of the many other customers of BF Borgers CPA PC were part of the fraud or were even aware of the fraud. The SEC's press release makes it clear that the fraud was on Borgers' customers, which would mean that Tr...

Same font as the one shown there? Yeah. I'm not too picky. I was looking at the different Fallout logos and script changes and honestly they all look about the same to me. That one is kind of 'pointier/edgier' than I prefer, I like the rounded look, but it doesn't really matter so long as it's 'blo...

Jews have continuously lived in the Levant for millennia, long before Islam was even a religion. By contrast, there has never been a Palestinian state at any point in history.

You mean people might dare to suggest that she doesn't have a right to exist? Heck, some of those callers might even demand that she and her family should move away from where they currently live. Boy, those would be totally outrageous things to say.

Yeah, I think if you are literally holding a press conference, you've put your identify out into the public. I would note that in terms of defamation law—which distinguishes between people who are "public figures" and people who are not and applies a higher burden proof for defamation of public figu...

I generally keep around and somewhat regularly consume: (1) Diet Rite cola; (2) Zevia ginger ale; and (3) various Giant Eagle (barely) flavored seltzers. None of those have sugar or caffeine, and all of them also work as mixers.

if I was a Shystery lawyer, I’d argue that Ace was sexually assaulted because Finkle “forced” a kiss, which is bad enough, but also did so under false pretenses and Ace never consented There are some states (I don't think PA is one) that have laws against "rape by deception" or "rape by fraud" or s...

Been watching Fallout, and it's pretty decent, but they really need to do some sort of reference for the legendary bugginess that so often rears its head in Bethesda games. Like there should be a scene where the main characters come across a body that's halfway sticking out of a wall, or someone in ...

The point isn’t that they’ve had X number of successful launches. The point is that it takes 1 failed launch/explosion to irradiate everything for probably hundreds of miles. Well, yeah. I wasn't saying that trying to launch nuclear waste into space was a good idea. It's a staggering bad idea, both...
