In the US there is no “loser pays” like in other countries, it’s one of the biggest problems with our legal system. We also have judges who are unwilling (it seems) to throw out frivolous lawsuits.

But, I just don’t see how this woman has standing to sue a third party because her adult child was distressed or embarrassed in some way. No one is even claiming she was defamed or slandered. And clearly she brought this on herself, it’s not like she’s someone who had infamy thrust upon her.

I think your adult kid pretty much has to be dead before you have standing to sue for your own “loss” or “pain”. but I’m not a lawyer, so I don’t know for sure.

You can tell just by looking at her that the mother is a very special sort of person!

Yep, I can only imagine what the father is like.

Okay that is clearly NOT Luke’s mother.

That’s Jabba the Huts mother.

Oh, “mother” probably had an abortion and urged her daughter to have one too.

The “emotional distress” she’s talking about is the weight of guilt of being reminded of at least 2 murders on her conscience.

Exactly what the daughter must be saying -- "I can only imagine what my dad must be like, because my mom doesn't remember."

It was probably pretty dark in the alley behind the bar.

‘We also have judges who are unwilling (it seems) to throw out frivolous lawsuits.’

When you go to court there are always at least three lawyers: The plaintiffs’, the defendants’, and the Judge. The judges only real job is to make sure that the other two lawyers are paid!
