If they have a court order then it sounds like she will lose. That being said, if I my parents died in the last year or so, and someone mailed a leg to my residence of my parent, regardless of the circumstances, it might be worth a lawsuit. If the company provides the court order, fine they win, they both go home. But to get a leg of your parent within a year of his/her death is disturbing.
good lord, one million dollars for pain and suffering of seeing her dead father's leg bone <if you read the article there is not a 'intact' leg send to her> and some tissue in a rubbermaid container? this is just rediculous and we wonder why our judicial system is so back logged with stupid lawsuits from 'trauamtized' people just looking for a quick buck...one million dollars? come on, seriously now...
i wanna sue mcdonalds cause last week i had a chicken mcnugget that was at least 95% nugget and only 5% chicken
Perhaps, but who would expect a lobstergram to come from Houston? What about the appearance of the package, I wonder, caused her to think it was a lobstergram? I think you're too gullible.
That is what we don't know. Usually when human body parts are shipped, I would suggest that they be marked clearly as such on the outside of the package. In the very least, it is medical waste. If the lab followed the "letter of the law" and by all intentions did just that, they could still be sued for using zero tact. If that is the case, I would say that the lady has a leg up on the firm. But, one million dollars? That is an arm and a leg! Sorry.
