And the magical $500 billion Dr Evil quoted a few pages back is? The reality no amount of money brings the kid back or takes away the pain.[/quote]

Right, that was my point, perhaps not made well.

To those talking about massive settlements in hundreds of millions, maybe the Plaintiffs attorney will come back to explain (I don't practice this area of law), but in[b] wrongful death [/b]cases, there are actual values placed on a person's life, and on the suffering of the plaintiffs, which are calculated using all sorts of criteria. That's why there is not a limitless cap on what a family might receive in settlement for loss of their toddler's life. In the case of a small child, I'm not sure what the criteria are, but I'm guessing that's what the PP attorney was basing his 6 mil max figure on.[/quote]

But to win on a wrongful death case, you have to prove fault - and so far I see no fault on the part of Disney.  Based upon what I know (which may be false and incomplete) I, as judge, would throw the case out on summary judgment in that I don't see Disney as being at fault or negligent . . yet.[/quote]

All a lawyer needs to do is bring in one of the many witnesses to almost gator attacks on Disney property. Thank goodness you're not a judge btw [/quote]
