Today's headline: "Jury Awards $6.5M to Panic Disorder Patient March 20, 2006
A health care case worker in Santa Rosa, Calif., who said he was denied a promotion because a panic disorder prevented him from meeting clients won $6.5 million in an employment discrimination lawsuit."
What happens is that trial lawyers write bad laws that they can profit from, like the ADA. Politicos on the take vote for these laws, then morons like this guy sue under them. Please tell us what this has to do with "civil rights."
I think that when plaintiffs lose a lawsuit they should have to reimburse the defendants, and contingency fees should be illegal.
