  1. How on Earth does something like this end up in the High Court?

    Expensive dismissal for someone..

  2. Good. Cunts that sue over their wain just getting a fucking injury should be fined for wasting the courts time.

  3. 10 years ago ffs and the mother was sat in the car playing on her phone.

  4. > He was there with his older brother and younger sister, *while his mother supervised from her car* which was parked outside the playground railings,

    FarmVille ain’t going to tend its own crops now is it?

  5. 10 years that case was being dragged out for, that’s the Irish legal system for you, pigs at a trough, the only miracle here is that the judge demonstrated some common sense for once…

  6. I remember both my brothers broke the exact same bone on the same day way back when. One at a soccer summer camp, after which we went to the playground and the other one fell off one of the structures.

    Never even crossed my mothers mind to claim, such a sickening mentality 

  7. The article doesn’t mention who is liable for costs.

  8. Can’t believe this is a real story, incredibly disheartening.
