kudos:2 | Legal system not broken Yup... just another bill that some out of touch politician came up with so he/she can say they were working for their money. It will never pass... and it should not. As mentioned above, it would break the legal system. Like it or not, everyone gets their day in court. There is a reason that people don't automatically have to pay defense costs when they lose. It shuts down the legal system to all but the wealthy.
I agree 100%... the _patent_ system needs to be fixed... not the legal system. |

Is that the motto of the ABA? Lawsuit losers SHOULD pay - it would cut way back on meritless lawsuits.

kudos:2 | said by Linklist:Lawsuit losers SHOULD pay - it would cut way back on meritless lawsuits. So you think a piece of paper (the law you want) should automatically determine the loser's case had no merit? As mentioned, wealth parties have a much better chance of winning cases. This does not mean that the losers case was without merit. Actually, the loser could be correct and just did not have the funds to finance his/her case well enough to win. So in addition to that, you think those people should also be billed tens of thousands of dollars?
Considering that... go back and again read my post. It would shut down the court system to all but the most wealthy. Somehow this is better? |

Better to prevent the lawsuit in the 1st place.
