>>10109640>get sued because of dumb shit like hot coffee?Ok everyone forgets the actual reason behind the Coffee suite, Someone got third degree burns from coffee, Coffee that was too hot for the container and blew up all over the right side of her body. Yes its dumb that "coffee hot" is printed on the side of every Macca's coffee, but the person who started the law suit was seriously burned, and the person who served it to her was negligent.
>Mrs. Liebeck’s injuries were far from frivolous. She was wearing sweatpants that absorbed the coffee and kept it against her skin. She suffered third-degree burns (the most serious kind) and required skin grafts on her inner thighs and elsewhere.>Liebeck’s case was far from an isolated event. McDonald’s had received more than 700 previous reports of injury from its coffee, including reports of third-degree burns, and had paid settlements in some cases.
