re: Las Vegas Victims Sue Slide Fire for Negligence

Just because something is legal doesn't mean it is absolved of a negligence claim.

I do want to know the theory of the case. It will be interesting to see if they actually have a novel approach or if they are merely shooting for a sympathetic jury who is comfortable with a little jury nullification.

BTW the Sandy Hook plaintiffs were likely not out of pocket anything. It was almost certainly a contingency case and even though some states require the plaintiff to be on the hook for costs attorneys almost never pursue this.
