    I'm astounded that any chip in her immediate vicinity remained uneaten long enough for her to slip on.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,813 ✭✭✭Noveight


    She claims a chip was allowed to remain on the floor of the food court and there was an alleged failure to warn her of the danger posed by the chip

    This shíte just writes itself.

    "Watch that chip over there Lina, he's shady as fúck"

    Compo culture is getting out of control in this country.

    The Solicitors in this case got payed As well a ball of Money bet the Legal cost was more than 100k .

    Insurnace rates for every person in the country are sky rocketing because of silly bints like her who what someone to blame for their own stupidity.

    40K is a nice little earner.
    And 10K previously for another slip in Lidl.

    She'll be dining out on this for awhile more.

    I saw the earlier thread and would have bet money that there was no way this bull**** would ever have won in court.

    This country deserves everything it gets.

    Costs were measured on the Circuit Court scale so the total costs won't be anything next or near that.

    In restaurants with hidden table legs.

    She's the Queens of compo culture but schure, her face was Kerrs Pink being snapped by the media.

    Is it any Golden Wonder though? Just for the Record, I think serial claimers should get mashed in the courts and we shouldnt be classed as having a chip on our shoulder for hating her.

    These people are a Blight on the nation.

    shame on Justice Cross for falling for such utter nonsense - judges should be accountable for such stupidity


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,801 ✭✭✭✭suicide_circus


    Victory for stupid

    ah he just slipped up on this one.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,800 ✭✭✭Senna


    She only won €10k last time, she probably knew to have a better excuse this time.

    Also, for everyone of these cases that makes it to court, there are 10's of not 100's of cases settled out of court. My last employer had a case against him of a drunk woman who decided to walk up a very steep grass bank rather than taking the footpath, she fell, broke a bone and then put in a case that it happened on the dance floor. Load of people seen it and employer told insurance company that their was witnesses, but they still paid out about €15k.

    Conor74 how much would the `Solicitors have got in `Legal fees and cost ?.:confused:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,801 ✭✭✭✭suicide_circus


    Could businesses legally refuse her admission on the grounds that they can't guarantee her safety due to her propensity to have expensive accidents?

    Discrimination can only be based on gender, age, race etc

    40 K is nothing `Compared to this case. Limerick Physiotherapiist `Awarded 1 Million euros in damages Nilofar ms Ikram of Dooradoyle Limerick after slip on icy steps . Irish Independent 27 feb 2014. so one Women get 1 `Million ` for a fall another Women gets just 40k

    That makes it ok so.

    40 K is peanuts when you think a women who fell in Limerick gets 1 million euros.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,166 ✭✭✭Are Am Eye


    It says that after the injury she could not clean or hoover in her house.
    A fitting end to this story would be if somebody slipped on the rubbish which she could not clean up in her own house due to the ironic injury caused by the very rubbish which caused her own injury.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,021 ✭✭✭Donal55


    Judge found her a credable litigant??

    Careful you don't slip on those peanuts. Salty little feckers.

    Unfortunately she's not the silly bint. She made herself an easy 40k. It's the silly bints who award these payouts are causing our insurance to skyrocket.
