Parents Sue WWASPS . Read Complaint Here

Troll Control:
I read the entire document.  If it holds up through litigation it will be ONE RIGHTEOUS POP.

We'll have to wait and see where the hammerstroke falls the hardest...

Question - After almost 2 years of the threatened "class action suit" is this the best they could do?  Where is Karen BUrnett (Buzzkill) - what about the COlburns, Spots (Sue Kolbo) yes, Sue Scheff - where are all these people that have been badmouthing these wonderful schools, but haven't joined the suit??  

So few on it and from what I've read, so twisted.  Is this even really the legal document, or is it the made up for the internet version?  

Where are all those hundreds of disgruntled parents and students??  Oh, not really there?  How NOT surprising.  

Just my two cents -  :wink:

I didn't see much detail on some of the plaintiffs, but the boy whose shoulder was broken and did not receive medical help for "many days" certainly has good cause for suing the pants off WWASP.  I broke my shoulder two years ago.  I cannot imagine going ONE day without medical help!  The pain alone requires medical intervention, and the shoulder must be stabilized to avoid further injury and to facilitate proper healing.  

I am not sure, but I thought I recognized Kerry Layne Brown as someone who left messages on VOY and others from TB recognized him as one who was seriously abused. I could be wrong but LayneLane Brown sticks in my memory.

I am not a lawyer, but this does not appear to be a class action suit.  This appears to be strictly for those who can prove they are victims of abuse.  Maybe they are trying to set precidents.

There could be valid reasons that many people may not be named in the complaint as plaintiff's. Here's one possibiliy: Maybe some people just dont want to go through the emotional hell all over again. Do you have any idea how long litigation can drag on? Sometimes for years. It would be perfectly understandable if some people just want to get on with their lives.

Reliving the emotional hell is the exact reason why I didnt file a civil suit and press criminal charges against Straight when I definitely could have done so, on solid legal grounds I might add.

Unless you are one of the attorneys working on this case, its impossible know why its limited to those people. And BTW, from what I can tell, from what I've learned in law school and my experience as a law clerk, the legal theories appear sound.[ This Message was edited by: Nonconformistlaw on 2005-08-13 17:04 ]

BuzzKill:
Some of those folks mentioned never were to interested or inviolved with this particular action.
Some have pulled their case.
Others are still waiting in the wings.
All we can do is wait and see how this plays out.
