What year is it......
I was killing time this evening reading celebrity blogs and what not. Besides Kiefer Sutherland being sentenced to 48 days in jail, which I'm not worried about because Jack Bauer escaped a federal prison in 50 minutes in Season 3. I read that a man is suing Lindsay Lohan from when she hit him in her car, way back in 2005. We are 24 days away from 2008, and someone is first suing someone for what happened in 2005? He claims he can now prove she was drunk when she hit him. What ever lab he sent her blood work to must really suck. I'm no legal guy or anything but I'm pretty sure it should take less than 2+ years to be able to prove that someone was drunk when they hit you. I think they have these field sobriety tests or something. The only experience I have with law and court rooms is sitting in on my 4 divorce hearings.

its called the statute of limitations you dunce. its a way to protect your claim against someone from expiring for a set period of time in case you are unaware of it or unable to sue at the exact time of the transaction or occurance of the events giving rise to the claim. people sue for stuff that happened years ago all the time. like when the parents of your students find out in a few years you exposed yourself in class they can still sue you. comprenede? I swear to god I need to start billing you for wasting my time correcting all the legal inaccuracies of your blog every goddam day.
Traveling legal counsel is a good thing. Even if he bills you a plate of corned beef and cabbage.
I'm no legal expert either, but is his claim any different because she was drunk? I don't know the details of the accident but if she was found to be at fault for the accident before originally what will her sobriety or lack of change?
