The plaintiff would need to prove AMTRACK was negligent.Ok, am I the only person who thinks the woman should be suing AMTRACK for neglegence? They said the dead guy should have been able to.forsee hos.body flying and injuring someone, why then did amtrack.build the platform the way they did. If the dead guy can get sued for neglegance, how about the 70 mph train that caused his body to fly?
In this situation the train is the bat, the plaintiff is the window, and the dead man would be both the batter and the ball.If I hit a baseball through your window, you dont ask the baseball manufacturer to repair your window do you? No. you ask the guy with the bat....right?
I don't hate you at all, hate is for the unloved. I just show you the hypocrisy of yourself and it irritates you to no end.NoDrama has an ongoing hate fest going with me. It has ranged anywhere from homophobic hate comments to racial slurs. It's just a carry over from his constant attacks. Pay it no mind.
Yeah johnny, I get all that, but the same arguments , if valid for the dead guy, are just as valid against amtrack.The plaintiff would need to prove AMTRACK was negligent.
It is reasonable to assume that a train track will be carrying a train on it and care should be taken in crossing the tracks.
It is also reasonable to assume that a long distance train would run at high speeds.
Furthermore, it is reasonable to assume that a woman standing on a platform would be perfectly safe unless some careless asshole got himself killed and in the process, injured her.

Not valid at all unless the facts change.Yeah johnny, I get all that, but the same arguments , if valid for the dead guy, are just as valid against amtrack.
I would say the dead guy had reason to believe he wouldnt die crossing, but was simply wrong.
I would say its reasonable to assume the train wouldnt be approaching the platform at 70 mph.
It is then also reasonable to assume that the woman would be safe.
I dunno, maybe im partial to the dead guy. My cousin got hit by a train five years ago and died. My brother got splattered with his body parts. The whole family is still kinda fucked from it. If someone tried to sue us for neglegence it would really really piss me off
Woman sues man killed by train
If he doesn't pay, are they going to throw his ass in jail? He's in several pieces so that might be an option.
yeah that's it. you nailed it. Good job brownie.I don't hate you at all, hate is for the unloved. I just show you the hypocrisy of yourself and it irritates you to no end.
o.k. there spandy. calm down. it's only the internet.Do you not see? That lady was fucked up by the actions of that man whether it was on purpose or an accident, so anything left behind in his estates SHOULD be legally hers to settle any medical debt and whatnot that was associated with his dumbass running in front of that train. They aren't going to put him or his "pieces" in jail, for fucks sake stop being so over the top.
At the risk of having this post edited or deleted for daring to disagree with an all-powerful MODERATOR in the Politics section, I will nonetheless offer a rebuttal.this isn't a clear cut case of negligence.
the appeals judge ruled that case law dealing with flying body parts is sparse, and therefore it should proceed so some sort of case law comes into effect...
more bizzare than anything else, and semi redundant to point out a glitch in what scholars recognize is an imperfect law system in effect in the US... it's what we got so we just deal with it....
Smoke a lil trainwreck IMO.This is a trainwreck of a thread, and now some has hit me in the face. Oh what to do. cn
I guess people on here don't understand the concept of comprehensive damage.Ok, am I the only person who thinks the woman should be suing AMTRACK for neglegence? They said the dead guy should have been able to.forsee hos.body flying and injuring someone, why then did amtrack.build the platform the way they did.

Apparently some people do not understand the concept of Proximate Cause.I guess people on here don't understand the concept of comprehensive damage.
A few years ago this guy high on E tried to kill his lover with a car. The guy failed and was so angry he drove down the street where I lived. He then backed up, drove forward at full speed from nearly a block away and totaled my parked car while I was watching tv in my apartment. He he hit my car so hard that my car hit another parked car and totaled it too because his car's wheels scraped the curb and bent the axle. The owner of the car my car struck wanted my driver's license and insurance. I told him to go fuck himself and his dispute was with the high one. He said it was my car, so I'm at fault. I told him he better have comprehensive insurance or be willing to sue the other guy. It got so heated, the cops nearly arrested both of us. He didn't have coprehensive and the high one fled the country. The insurance companies' all agreed since he had no comprehensive he could pound salt.
What this means is Amtrack is neglegent, not the dead dude, for allowing the possibility of comprehensive damage from flying body parts. In the end she'll have to sue Amtrack once the case reaches the highest appeals court. Also the woman will be libel for wrongful suit. The appeal which allowed her to win was in the wrong.
I think train passengers have a reasonable expectation not to be hit by flying body parts. This was a clear accident, it wasn't planned nor was it a suicide. Yeah it was stupid, but if stupidity were reason enough to sue, every single president, and politician would be sued into the streets.Apparently some people do not understand the concept of Proximate Cause.

AMTRACK was not negligent under the law.
