Absence
April 25th, 2008 8:03 am

You’ve probably noticed I’ve been absent lately. It’s because my focus has been on a lawsuit of a family member who had a minor accident with a van driven by an illegal alien 3 years ago from which they lawyered up and sued for $2 million. It was a grueling trial which ended yesterday in our favor. It was your typical case of plaintiff’s lawyers using the legal system as a lottery ticket.

So I’m getting back to normal daily activities and maybe one of these days I’ll write about our experience in this lawsuit. One interesting thing is that even in that setting, you could politics playing a large part - from the plaintiff’s lawyers striking potential jurors for their support of tort reform to the playing of the race card as a judicial weapon against innocent people to score cheap points with a jury.

Luckily the jury saw it for what it was. A disgrace. And the plaintiff’s lawyers spent $150,000 of their own money chasing this one. I take satisfaction in knowing they’ve lost money on the deal.

  1. I’ve missed you, TR. I missed your wit.
    I’m glad everything worked out in your favor. I’m so fed up with criminal aliens I could puke.

  3. You made my day!

    Millions of Americans are totally fed up with the criminal aliens and maybe if the MSM did some follow-up questions, they’d learn it’s one of the reasons we are disgusted with Congress.

  4. Rainmaker, I’m not an attorney — but also have that warm, fuzzy feeling about that 150G gambling “loss”. Couldn’t happen to a nicer school of sharks.

  5. Nice to have you back. You were missed. I would definitely love to hear the whole truth, and nothing but the truth, as they say in court.

    I’m thankful all worked out to your favor. In our world today, that isn’t a guarantee anymore.

  6. The whole thing should have been thrown out the INSTANT that it was found out that they were illeagle aliens. Damn joke that they were allowed to even take it to court.
    ” Oh your an illeagle alien ? GET THE HELL OUT!! OF THE COUNTRY!!!!”
    Next!
