so how could anyone even consider suing Lockheed for a bad model airplane structure??..dumbfounding,lol
You can sue anyone for anything. Whether or not the judge/jury will actually award the claim is another matter. If your case is particularly hopeless, you can aim for an out-of-court settlement by threatening small-time victims with huge legal bills, or large corporations with tons of bad press
I know about a case where some guy driving his car hit a cow crossing the road. His passenger was injured, and sued the driver. Driver had no money, so he sued the farmer. Farmer had no money so he sued... the corporation that owns the land and leases it out to the farmer. This was brought before court and a jury, who awarded the claimant with a sizable amount of money.
or should I say [
