Another case of deep pockets mentality. Starbucks is rich and therefore can afford to pay out a nice settlement. Just like the Mcdonalds case. Who would ever think that a hot beverage would actually be hot?
Sad but no doubt about it a jury will award in her favor.

Have you ever picked up something very hot and burnt your hand because a child was near and you KNEW you could not let it go?
I have, you will always go down for the child, she just let go without thinking. She must be very young.

and I want to sue the bar I went to the other night, the straight shot I ordered was stronger booze than I realized and it burnt my throat when I shallowed the fifth one.

My friend, IMO I think she let it happen (preplanned as cruel as it sounds) so to attempt to use this innocent child as a cash cow. It's much like when some women get an ooops pregnant so to use that child(ren) as child sup.......I mean mommy annuity payment$ for 18 plus years and with some using the government welfare system as well.

Have a great 4th!

There will always be someone looking for an easy buck. Common sense isn't so common, and I hope that baby is okay. Burns hurt more than anything. It's a horrible pain as I once ran smack into my dad when he had a cup of hot coffee. It went all over my face and it was the worst pain I've ever experienced. What's more, I had a 7 month old neice who died after scalding water splattered on her legs. She died. The burns can be that bad, especially for one that young.

I hope they throw this case out of court. It isn't Starbuck's responsibility to ensure everyone's inteligence or common sense. It was an accident and the woman needs to take responsibility for her mistake.

Yes two words that are practically extinct with too many in this country as well as the lack of being ACCOUNTABLE.

Sad really.

Not only I hope they throw this case out but that she also has to pay and pay mightily!

There is a woman here in Phoenix suing the police for millions because of her son's death from a car accident. Accident was during a police pursuit. Police pursuit was because of home invasion they had just committed.

She has no shame.
