  • Wrongful Death Suit Should Be Tossed Because

    From JAB@21:1/5 to All on Thu Aug 15 07:31:00 2024
    Disney Argues Wrongful Death Suit Should Be Tossed Because Plaintiff
    Signed Up For A Disney+ Trial

    Disney is asking a Florida court to dismiss a lawsuit brought by the
    family of a 42-year-old New York doctor who they claim had a fatal
    allergic reaction after eating at an Irish pub in Disney Springs in
    October.

    Does signing up for Disney's popular streaming service mean you have
    agreed to never sue the entertainment giant over anything forever?

    That is what Disney argues in a wrongful death lawsuit involving a
    42-year-old New York doctor whose family claims had a fatal allergic
    reaction after eating at an Irish pub in Disney Springs in October.

    Disney is asking a Florida court to dismiss a lawsuit brought against
    it by Jeffrey Piccolo, the husband of Kanokporn Tangsuan, a family
    medicine specialist with NYU Langone's office in Carle Place, on Long
    Island.

    The company argues Piccolo had agreed to settle any lawsuits against
    Disney out of court through the arbitration process when he signed up
    for a one-month trial of Disney+ in 2019 and acknowledged that he had
    reviewed the fine print.

    Reminder to those in the US to write to your Congress Critters for FAA
    reform. The last bill was introduced with bipartisan support and died
    in committee.

    Utterly ridiculousfrom my european perspective. Of course Disney is
    guilty. On the other hand, US legal practice is different from european
    (for better and for worse) so will be interesting to see the end of that
    story.
