Can you file a lawsuit if you get a hair in your food and choke on it?

Answer 1

Actually Casinos are self insured so the best you can do is file a claim with that particular Nation. No. You cannot sue for something like that unless you can show personal injury or actual damage. Hi ! See here

http://bspioix.my-place.us/images Technically, you canfile a lawsuit for almost any reason you can imagine. There is no gate keeper at the courthouse to review the merits of each individual suit. Of course, that does not mean that the lawsuit will be successful or even survive a few months. Whether one can file a lawsuit against a casino does not depend on whether the casino is self-insured or has a liability insurance policy. Those factors merely will impact the casino's ability to pay a judgment or reach a settlement. To succeed on a claim of finding a hair in casino food, you will have to prove the casino's negligence and, more difficult in this case, that you were damaged or physically injured by the hair. This seems almost certain to fail.

Filing weak or bogus lawsuits may present the risk of sanctions either from the court or an imposition of legal costs and attorney's fees from the winning party. Each state has different laws. Check with an attorney licensed to practice law in your state adn do not rely exclusvely on my opinion.

Answer 2

You can sue a restaurant if hair was in your food, but you more than likely would not win a lawsuit. Your best bet would be to contact the manager or corporate and see what they were willing to do to compensate you.

Answer 3

Technically, yes, you could - but, the first thing any good attorney will ask is, "what are your damages?". That doesn't mean "I was emotionally scarred by finding hair in my food." Did you become ill enough to incur medical expenses, lose time at work, things like that. Humans have hair all over their bodies & no matter how clean a restaurant, these things can still happen. I can't imagine a court or judge that would appreciate this claim as a true tort & not a case of clogging the system with situations that occur on a daily basis to humans.

Yes but it would be a difficult case, you would have to build a lawsuit that established that it was in fact one of the employees hair follicles in your food, rather than your own. The hair in question must be proven to have come from Sonic and nowhere else. This could be done through means of DNA testing for example. You also have to take into consideration the damages you seek to receive, one wouldn't want to incur all the costs of filing a lawsuit and taking it to court to receive an award that amounts to the cost of the food that the hair was in.

Answer 4

You can sue anyone, for anything in the US. But how do you prove that it wasn't your own hair that you might have choked on?
