Re: Legal system not broken

said by tcope:

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.

Is that the motto of the ABA? 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?

Does it matter? The small &/OR poor lose anyway. Why waste time on them clogging up the court system. Better to prevent the lawsuit in the 1st place.
