A man who leaned over a plate of sizzling fajitas to pray can't sue a Westampton restaurant because the dish burned him, an appellate court ruled Wednesday.
Hiram Jimenez sought damages from Applebee's Neighborhood Grill and Bar after a March 2010 incident at the chain's restaurant on Burlington-Mount Holly Road. But an appellate panel said Applebee's can't be held responsible because the hot food posed an "open and obvious" danger.
So the guy leans over the sizzling hotter than the sun cast iron skillet and didn't think he would get burned? Seriously? Next time he might want to pray for some common sense.
Jimenez, "Dear God. I could really use a financial windfall. I'm tired of not being able to buy the things I want. Please help me."
Server, "Be careful sir, this is very hot."
Jimenez, "God, thank you for this sign. AHHHHHHHH!! That hurts."
Judge, "No, I don't think so."
God, "Jimenez my son, I love you, but don't be such an ass."
