American Sues 12 Years Old Nephew!!
A woman sued her nephew for $127,000 for an exuberant hug and lost the case in court in 15 minutes. It was a story that spread like wildfire across the internet.
It seemed simple enough; the details seemed egregious. The nephew, eight years old at the time, had hugged her – said “I love you” while doing so – and the aunt sued him personally for damages to her wrist.
She only sued in now, 4 years later, because she "has no choice" - in her words. It seems like her insurance is not going to pay for the treatments.
This may be stupid but, at the eyes of the law this is perfectly normal when the insurance don't want to pay the bills and suing her nephew it's the only way, because the nephew's insurance will have to pay it under under the court's order.
