They need to have a minimum one year jail term for "stupid lawsuits". The dumbest ones will ignore their lawyer and get locked up.

I'm betting that's the reason she's being sued...

Because she wasn't too easy!

A night at the movies could lead to a day in court for two Texas residents.

According to the Austin American-Statesman, 37-year-old Brandon Vezmar of Austin is suing a Round Rock woman for texting during their movie date last week. He’s seeking $17.31, the price of a ticket to a 3D screening of Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2.

Describing the outing as “a first date from hell,” Vezmar told the newspaper that his date began texting about 15 minutes into the movie. According to a petition filed in small claims court, Vezmar’s date “activated her phone at least 10-20 times” until he asked her to stop. When he suggested she go outside to text, the woman departed the theater altogether and left Vezmar without a ride home, he said.


Vezmar said the woman subsequently refused to reimburse him for the ticket, and his petition described her behavior as “a threat to civilized society.”

Reached by the American-Statesman, the woman asked not to be identified by name and said she wasn’t aware of the claim against her. “Oh my God,” she said. “This is crazy.”

She added that she only texted in the theater two or three times.

Read the full story at the Austin American-Statesman.

Yeah... that isn't at all what the 7th amendment and $20 clause means.

the people who preside over small claims courts aren't usually actually judges

a lot of time they're just attorneys

small claims is more like a mediation or arbitration

It would depend on the jurisdiction the lawsuit was filed in. But California seems to have no Minimum amount.

I can basically guarantee she was texting about how awful her date was and was happy for the excuse to leave

The guy that is suing contacted that woman's sister to ask her for the ticket money. How horribly entitled and stalkery to boot!

So leave. Don't ruin the movie for everyone in the theater.

That would be the polite thing to do, and she did it in the end

Dude is still not owed his ticket money and should not be reaching out to her family or the court system for validation

Okay but in fairness, being left without a ride can also force one to call a taxi/uber, which could easily run Brandon another ~$10 or so.

Yeaaaah and?

It could have also cost her to get her own ride

Generally you arrive separately on a first date to be safe

Oh ok

That's a weird thing to do but whatever they sound like weird people. If I had a flop of a date I wouldn't expect a ride home

That too. I agree that carpooling on the first date is most definitely a bad idea.

Then again, so is a movie. You're supposed to be able to get to know your partner on the first date. A movie is like the worst thing you can do on a first date.

Nope as it probably would be my own fault too.
As for this "story" it's rather dumb. As much as I hate folk who constantly have their face in their phone when I'm out with them at the movies it's slightly different as not much talking is done anyway as you would be watching the movie. It's not like she was doing any harm texting either(assuming she had her phone on silent). Perhaps his date wasn't interested in the movie and he dragged her along to see it. If that's the case what exactly did he expect?

I am actually ok with this lawsuit. He isnt asking for an unreasonable amount. He spent money on tickets so they could see a movie together and she ruined his movie expirience under the pretense that she wanted to see it with him.

If the date went poorly and they disnt seek a second date i would be against him, but she actively ruined the activity he spent money to do. He isnt even asking for travel fare after she ditched him.

She was told to shut it off during the movie by the movie theater.

She should just give him the $20 and both should move on with life. legal fee are going to be higher than that.
