$50,000......seems a staggeringly small sum to sue for, for the death of your wife????
1. McDonald’s Hot Coffee Case (Liebeck v. McDonald’s Restaurants): In 1994, Stella Liebeck was awarded $2.7 million in punitive damages after spilling hot coffee on herself, though the amount was later reduced. The case became famous as an example of excessive litigation.
2. Red Bull “Gives You Wings” Lawsuit: In 2014, Red Bull agreed to a $13 million settlement over its advertising claim that the drink “gives you wings,” which was deemed misleading.
3. Subway “Footlong” Lawsuit: Subway settled a lawsuit for $520,000 in 2016 after customers found that the “footlong” subs were slightly shorter than advertised.
