I heard the report this morning on the radio that the
parents of a 17 year old killed in a car wreck in the
Macon, Ga area are suing Stroh's for 30 Megabucks.
The basis for the suit is that the driver was juiced on
Schlitz Malt Liquor ( A Stroh owned brand) and that when
the wreck occurred the 17 year old passenger was killed.
The parents claim (probably among others) is that Stroh should
have placed a warning label on their product about the
dangers of drinking and driving.
Question: Are these type of cases considered crank law suits
by lawyers (other than the ones involved) ?
