Topic	MGM Resorts Sues More Than 1,000 Las Vegas Shooting Victims to Avoid Liability
KhanJohnny 07/17/18 11:05:18 AM #32:	Coffeebeanz posted... voldothegr8 posted... Coffeebeanz posted... Lawyer [for people trying to sue MGM resorts] says suit is outrageous. In other news, amateur meteorologist says sky is blue. Oh I agree MGM shouldn't be held responsible, that's not the point though. The point is how tactless the act of suing every victim is and the PR shitstorm and people who won't stay at their properties now probably isn't worth it. If I owned it, I'd deal with the litigation of people suing and leave it at that. My guess is the "lawsuit" is seeking an immunity from lawsuit, not monetary damages. That's why using the term "lawsuit" is misleading to the average person because it usually implies suing for compensation. I've never heard of anything like that in the American system of law, but maybe I'm wrong. That seems almost like an advisory opinion, which are not available in American law. <cite>KhanJohnny posted [p:905231403] in MGM Resort...
